Renee is unreliable and unprofessional. My family booked a holiday photo shoot package with her…read moremonths in advance, made a deposit, and she COMPLETELY FLAKED on us. She didn't email, call, or text to let me know she wasn't coming. It was a weekday, we took the time off work, got our toddlers dressed and ready to go, arrived at the location Renee selected, and she was a total NO SHOW. We've had success with her in the past. But still, head's up: She'll tell you to expect your images in "about 2 weeks," but its always over six weeks, and even then you'll likely have to email her to remind her. Don't count on her if you want to get holiday cards out in a timely manner. In fact, I wouldn't count on her at all. Save yourself a lot of stress and find a different photographer.

I didn't want a "wedding-y" type feel to my wedding, it was a very casual small affair and I love that she got all the shots of my big family that I wanted as well as plenty of candids that captured the moments.

In planning she was incredibly responsive and easy to work with, which is crucial for wedding planning. She is able to capture photos with soft, romantic lighting which I love. On the day of she was so on top of it, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. The photos turned out GORGEOUS, we love all of them! The clouds rolled in during the evening so while our sunset photos we had planned didn't have any real *sunset* in them, she was still able to capture amazing lighting with the clouds. We will be returning customers for future photoshoots for sure! Thank you, Maria!

(Formerly known as Michelle Zuniga Photography)…read more My wife and I used Michelle as our wedding photographer in late December of 2007. She was great to work with, had competitive rates, and showed genuine interest and care for saving the events memories digitally. She even included 3 wallet sized photo albums free; one for each of our mothers and one for us.

Can I tell you I love Michelle? Well I do. I love her. I…read morestarted planning our wedding in 2008, and had gone through every photographer I could find on The Knot and Brides. I did google searches. Everything. I hate standard wedding photography. Crap that looks overly posed and nasty. And then I cam across Michelle on the last day I could look for a photographer - my husband, then fiance, said I had until the end of February or we were going with his first choice. I looked through her website, and oh bolly bolly oh my golly! SHE is what I had been searching for. Gorgeous shots of people, nothing overly posed, every shot looking like a dear friend took the picture. They captured the essence of each individual and I felt like I was there, like I understood how the people in the pictures felt. That was all I needed, I sent out an email. Two seconds later, Michelle had responded. Here was a vendor who was used to using technology, she told me I could contact her on gchat and since our schedules were packed we could conference call our first meeting. I nearly cried. The day of the teleconference came. The only question I really had was, do you make any provisions for military, what if my husband got deployed unexpectedly. She reassured me, we would not lose our money, she would hold onto it and reschedule. She also reassured me that she would shoot until every last major event in the wedding was captured. She wouldn't just take off. That was it, we hired her on the spot. We also hired her (for an insanely reasonsable fee - think Crazy Eddy sells electronics) for our engagement shoot. We wanted her to get to know us and vice versa. She was amazing and incredibly fun to work with. We were all geared up for our wedding in 2008 when the worst news came through, my husband was being called up for service early. We had to postpone everything. I was running around contacting vendors, family, bridal party. Trying not to melt down, and when I called Michelle she was so sweet and understanding. When we rescheduled our wedding for late in 2009, I called Michelle. She was so excited to work with us again. And so was I. She is so incredibly professional - Annie and Bill were out of town on the day of my wedding so she asked her friend David Esquire to fill in. I never even knew that there was a problem. She just handled it, like a dream vendor. Again, on the day of the wedding, Michelle was professional as can be. She was there on time, and even tolerated the fact that I didn't get her her shots list until that morning. She was funny and energetic (a difficult feat when it is raining and so cold you can see your breath and it is an outdoor wedding). She was like a ninja, I don't ever remember seeing her, but when she gave me the pictage link to our wedding photos, there were all these amazing shots she had taken. She took these amazing shots of us too, posed me perfectly, hid flaws played up assets. Honestly, I don't think of Michelle as my vendor. I think of her as a friend. Every major photo op I have in life will be shot by her or her studio. Heck I even added her on facebook. If you pass her by for another studio (maybe with the exception of Esquire Photography because David was pretty cool himself) you are a total fool. Studio Z will capture your wedding day exactly as you saw it, exactly as you experienced. And really, isn't that what a photographer is supposed to do?

The final product was beyond what I had thought. Every photo had such an elegance, that there was not one that I didnt like.

Charissa came to the rescue this past weekend when she took some of the most candid, authentic, beautiful photos of us! I found her on Instagram, she's super affordable, and she put us right at ease. We actually had fun in front of the camera (which I never thought would happen) and made the whole experience so pleasant. Within an hour of the shoot, she texted me 5 gorgeous sneak peek photos of the session. She then had the entire gallery edited and posted within a week! I highly recommend Charissa for a fun/energy filled shoot, candid shots that capture he subjects' relationship and personality, and an overall fabulous experience. Thanks, Charissa!

In between booking him and the day of the event, he was always responsive by text and email. On the day of the event, he was on time, managing our stress with ease and humor, and making the photography easy. Our photos came out better than we could have hoped for!

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Cat! My husband and I met Cat during our amazing…read moreengagement shoot. During this experience, we were able to capitalize on the natural fall beauty in Burlington, Vermont and Cat captured every sweet moment we had together. My husband and I were not used to being photographed but her sweet demeanor and fantastic ideas made it an unforgettable experience. I used several of the shots from our engagement shoot for our save the dates and put them on our wedding website. Cat was able to get the photos to us really quickly and we were floored by how beautiful they were and loved the variety of shots we had to choose from. I even framed several of the engagement photos and used them to decorate our barn at during our wedding reception. When it came time to our wedding, Cat made our experience even better than I could have imagined! I knew my wedding day pictures would be amazing, but what absolutely surprised me were the special moments Cat captured. From the loving way my husband and I looked at each other at our first look to my dad dipping me on the dance floor, Cat captured all of the moments that made our wedding unforgettable! Cat not only documented these incredible moments, but she also used her artistic eye to photograph every inch of our beautiful barn wedding. She documented each of our meticulously planned wedding areas which meant the world to me, especially because some of the details were gone before I even saw them, such as our delicious donut wall that was eaten up immediately! Words cannot express my gratitude for Cat and her incredible eye. The photos she took will be hanging on the walls of our home forever!
