From the beginning of the process, he was excellent at communication and allowed us the freedom to choose our location. We went with Ghirardelli Square, which is notoriously crowded on weekends. Nonetheless, Dawid was willing to accommodate our wishes and find the shots despite the crowd. We really had fun shooting with Dawid. He gave direction with posing which was a huge relief for me and my fiance. At the end of the session, we were both in such a great mood, and could not wait to see what he had captured. About a week later, we received our photographs and were blown away. We could not believe that was us. The way he composed the shots was so artistic. His editing style brought vibrant color to each image. There was diversity within the set of images: some wide-angle, some with movement, some fixed. The photographs have been unanimously loved by our families, friends, and ourselves. Thank you Dawid! You have a gift so we hope you continue to share it with the world.

She was shocked that I hired her having only looked at her portfolio, but I knew from the photos she had of another wedding at my venue that she would do a great job. And after our initial conversation I knew she would be perfect! She's a professional through and through. I appreciate her working with my husband who is camera shy and managing to document beautiful moments with our chaotic (but sweet) families. I know we made her nervous because we were pretty laid back and I am so appreciative she kindly made us take certain photos even though we said they were not important. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Her studio had every prop you can imagine and she made sure we were always on the same page on poses and props that we liked. Her attention to detail is also immaculate. She was extremely patient with our newborn and never rushed us when we needed to feed or change diapers. She was also fantastic with our toddler and made the photoshoot fun for her even when she wasn't always cooperative. We love all of the pictures and can't recommend Lori enough!

Paws and Play Studio captures still moments of my dogs that says everything about them!…read more I had two dogs to join Andrea and her assistant for two separate photo shoots since I wanted two separate locations. What's pawsitively pawesome +'s: + Skill. I have a one year old pup and a senior dog. She commanded their attention in both still and active shots. They responded to her very well. The 1-1/2 year old is especially easily distracted but Andrea managed to have my pup's attention in all our action shots. + Memorable moments. The pictures are priceless--I wanted them all. Even my friends who know my two dogs very well were impressed and said the essence of my dogs were captured in the photos. + Timely. Andrea and her assistant showed up on time and made time for the right shot. Andrea didn't mind getting down on the ground to get a dog eyes' view! And during the pandemic, she and her assistant wore masks. + Action shots. I was worried that my younger dog would run off and not pay attention. My worries were unfounded as I saw my dog run to her over and over again. Not once did my dog run off to chase a bird or sniff something on the grounds. Every single time she ran to Andrea to give her the perfect action shot! + No pressure. During our viewing session, Andrea patiently allowed me to view the proofs and select my favorites. Not once did she try to push any of the images or packages onto me. We also scheduled a follow up call to allow me to narrow my final options. + Dogs don't lie. Both of my dogs responded favorably to her. In fact my younger pup tried to follow her home. That tells me everything. I had a very positive experience with Paws and Play Studio from our initial consultation to our end product. Everything was delivered as expected with no surprises. Andrea did not disappoint. She captured the character and essence of my dogs on digital and print. Those images are priceless and to have the right person to take care of your dog and your memories is an investment. My dogs and I are happy to have found Andrea at Paws and Play Studio!

Andrea has been a joy to work with - we are lucky enough to have had two sessions with her. We won…read morethe first session through a fundraiser with Copper's Dream Rescue where our handsome pup Kuma got photographed for their 2021 calendar. Andrea immediately made us all feel at ease and Kuma fell in love with her and her treats. We left our shoot feeling like we'd made a new friend! When we met with Andrea to view the photos she took, I immediately started tearing up watching the slideshow. At the time, our pup Kuma had been on steroids and various other medications for many months and hadn't been his true, energetic self. Seeing him running and smiling in the photos made my heart swell and eyes fill with happy tears. We were so pleased with our time with Andrea that we booked a second session so we could include our other pup, Cali (she had been at puppy training for the first photo shoot). Our second photo shoot was just as much fun as the first - we wanted Andrea to capture some family portraits of us as well as candid shots of both Kuma and Cali. She couldn't have done a more spectacular job. The photos we have bring us so much joy and happiness. Andrea is professional, sweet, and funny. She does a beautiful job capturing both candid and posed moments. We could not recommend her more highly. She is one of the best in the Bay Area and we hope to work with her again in the future!

I had a nice photo that was taken of them many years ago, and Debi truly brought it to life. I couldn't believe how realistic the portraits were when she was done. It captured them so well, and was more life-like than the original photo. It's so nicely detailed, with a sparkle in their eyes - I absolutely love it. Every time I see this illustration hanging in their den it makes me happy I went to Debi's studio that day, because it inspired a unique gift that surprised my whole family for Christmas and immortalized the people I care about the most.

Maybe that's why it's taken us 15 yrs. to update them, but with a new grand son and a new son in law....it was time. Cheryl let us choose where we wanted the photo's taken and came prepared with many props and cute little toys for our grandson. The photo shoot took much more time than expected because our 3 yr. old "Mr. Grumpy Pants" had no nap and was not being cooperative that day. Poor Cheryl, she did everything to get him to smile and pose for the camera (including being repeatedly struck in the head by a stuffed animal). In the end, we were SO thrilled with the photo's she captured of our family. I was especially thrilled that as early as the next day she had a few "teaser" shots sent my way. Cheryl pays close attention to details and lighting and takes time to edit photo's so they look their best. We found her pricing very reasonable, especially given the quality of her photography. I can't wait for our family to continue to grow so we can have our portraits taken by Cheryl again!

I have booked with Eversnap twice already (and about to book again). I started hosting murder…read moremystery parties for my birthday two years ago and found Eversnap online. Both photographers were very quick in providing the edited photos, and I have had a great experience both times. In 2018, my photographer was Ross, and right off the bat, he's good at communicating with me (especially since I had booked about three months in advanced). He was prompt and very professional. He was very good in balancing out candid and posed shots. Even though I was the birthday girl and had the most shots, he was really good with making sure every guest I had were represented enough in the photos (I had less than 20 guests). What I especially liked about Ross was there wasn't a lot of idle time, and he was really good with taking every opportunity and catching the right moments. In 2019, my photographer was Madeline. She was great as well, especially with balancing out candid with posed shots. Her photos were very well edited and she got to capture a lot of awesome moments! My only tiny complaint about her is that in comparison to Ross, she seemed to take a lot less photos and spent plenty of times just sitting there. For comparison, Ross gave me about 230 photos, while Madeline only gave about 170. Regardless, her photos were great, so I can't complain much haha. I will continue to use Eversnap in any events I host because it's super easy to use. I also like the flexibility of paying 50% of the price upfront, and 50% after the event.
