After doing some online research and talking with a few photographers I decided to work with Stacey. We met in Old Town Alexandria one Saturday afternoon in October. I was nervous at first but shortly into our photo session I felt at ease as Stacey is friendly, professional and fun, not to mention amazing at what she does! She was also great with our greyhound and got some adorable shots of him. Stacey has a wonderful eye for light and color and found a lot of unique backgrounds for our photos. Our online gallery was available after about a week and a half and the results were fantastic! Soon after, Stacey scheduled a free consultation with us to view all our photos on the large computer screen that she has and to help us pick out which prints and framing options we wanted to put up in our home. She even helped us decide how best to place the photos on the wall. We received all our prints last week and have gotten our framed prints up on the wall, we couldn't be happier! If we were staying in the area I would absolutely work with Stacey again in the future.

Stacey is amazing.

I moderated a panel last week and a panelist I was being introduced to said, "yes, the woman with the most amazing head shot." Yesterday morning we did our 5th(!) family mini session shoot with Stacey in a garden next to the Capitol. It's wonderful to get these beautiful shots of our children growing up -- and have some shots with me that I love that aren't selfies! Years ago Stacey took an iconic (among our family and friends) photo of my son sulking off to the left of the Washington monument when my husband and I were were standing to the right smiling while pregnant with our daughter. That same day Stacey was able to joke around with our son and get the best shots of him smiling and enjoying himself. Our daughter enjoys the shoots just as much. Thank you, Stacey!

Talking with Katy was so easy, it was like talking to a friend I had not spoken to in a long time. We clicked right away and it was settled - she was going to capture the memories of my wedding. We planned an engagement photoshoot and the wedding. The engagement photoshoot was so much fun, she is so great at directing you to capture the best moments - when I got the preview back, I knew I made the right decision. Her style of photography is bright, colorful and candid - I absolutely love that about her. Fast forward a couple years after the wedding - Katy has photographed my pregnancy announcement and my maternity. I have loved every single gallery. I honestly cannot say enough amazing things about Katy, but if you are looking for a photographer, I highly suggest Katy. She is just absolutely amazing and I know you will love her just as much as I do.

Now I noticed that Yelp only has so many reviews of her business showing and the same thing happens to other businesses on Yelp so make sure you scroll down to not recommended reviews or something like that as you get more of the back story on a business. I'm glad I did and am glad I also chose her for my family portraits. I wholeheartedly recommend her for your family portraits as she's a true professional. I've also sent friends her way to get theirs done. Thank you Nicole, great pics!!

We highly recommend her for any professional photography needs and could not have been happier with the photo session or the amazing images that she took. Nicole is totally AWESOME - professional, knowledgeable, personal ... and just plan COOL!

Rachel did a lovely job on my son's newborn photos…read more Pros: --We were able to come to her home studio. Although she's not using it as much anymore, she was able to accommodate our need for a studio (poor natural light in our own apartment). Other photographers in the area do not have studios. --She charges a flat fee, which includes touch ups. You can make as many prints on your own of the digital prints that come out if the session. --Rachel has plenty of props and blankets for newborn photos. She spent nearly four hours photographing our little one! I would never had have the patience to do this on my own, in my current sleep-deprived state, nor known how to coax my little guy into ideal positions. --She delivered the photos on time as promised, two weeks after the shoot. Con: --I saw another baby on her Facebook page with Easter bunny ears and a carrot. It was too cute! Wish I knew to ask her if she had holiday related props during our shoot. That's not much of a con, is it? --My husband complained about the cost before the shoot ($450), but we both agree at the end of the day we would totally do it again.
