I arrived with a small suitcase (kidding/not really - I did take a wide assortment of clothes and jewelry). He suggested what I wear and positioned me just so.

We hired Will to photograph my son's low-key casual wedding. He was fantastic!…read more First, he was the most responsive of all the photographers we contacted. He discussed with the couple and was happy to work with their plans and what they did and didn't want, and very thoughtful about the photography options with great suggestions. He was a super nice guy as well. The day of the event he was professional, very flexible in the face of lots of cooks in the kitchen, clearly knew what he was doing, and really nice to work with. He knew how to compose shots and make them look great. But most important, the pictures came out wonderful! Finally, his fee was completely reasonable and appropriate to the occasion (unlike other photographers we contacted who said they had a minimum wedding fee whether or not it was a large, standard wedding event). I would say he exceeded expectations, and made it a super comfortable low-stress process. I would 100% hire him again!

When I needed to hire a photographer for my day job, I gave Wil a call. We needed a photographer to take stock photos for use on our website and had only a week to set up the shoot involving about 40 teenagers. He was quick to respond and was able to handle the demands of my colleagues and position the kids for some great photos. I recommend Wil for any kind of photography: weddings, special events, parties, and commercial photo shoots.

That same afternoon after the photoshoot, he sent us "raw" photos, which to me, looked edited- SO GOOD! I was not disappointed with any photo. He is worth flying out to any state to take photos- WORTH IT! I am so lucky we found Sam, and I am 100% confident in partnering with him for future photos. He has a confidence and humbleness to him, which made him a pleasure to work with. He has a wide range of photography skills, from headshots to operations, to B Roll. He has an artistic approach to capturing the true essence from our first creative meeting. Thank you Sam! You rock!!!!

Nicole is a fantastic photographer! My family has been using her for the last 3 years to do a…read morefamily vacation photo shoot and each year the pictures get better and better! She's an LBI local who's very familiar with the best spots to capture photographs. She's super personable and easy to get along with, which makes for a relaxing photo session. Our family photo shoots involve 6 adults and 3 kids and she captures everyone along with smaller groups (like grandparents with the grandkids or individual families). She is patient and understanding and knows how crazy it can be when kids get tired or rambunctious. She can do multiple locations for photo shoots - just recently we did the beach for some pics and then headed to Sunset Park to use as another location. In years past we used the lighthouse. I would highly recommend Nicole to capture any family memories, whether it's a wedding or, if you're like us, on vacation and want to get professional photos to capture everyone. Kids grow up quick and we're so grateful to have these beautiful keepsakes to look back on!

Nicole was beyond helpful throughout the process, was easily accessible for questions, patient, and super organized (which is HUGE)! From the first time we sat with Nicole, I knew that she was an addition we wanted for our special day. Nicole basically serves as a day-of-coordinator with the detailed timeline she puts together for the day (sorry I deviated from it sometimes LOL). Nicole has the best personality and the ability to get a group to focus so pictures can be completed efficiently! Our parents and bridal party loved her and her second shooter, Mel. Nicole was also open to suggestions throughout the day if I felt like I wanted a specific photo in the moment. We received SO MANY photos back with our full album, each one better than the next, making it so difficult to choose a photo for our canvas and pick our album! Thank you Nicole for making what can be a stressful process so seamless with your knowledge, poise, and flexibility. I would hands down choose you again if I could to be apart of our special day. Nicole truly loves what she does and it shows in her work. Look no further, she is your girl!

She made us feel completely comfortable, and it shows in every photo. Her work is absolutely stunning. She captured every emotion, every detail, and all the little in-between moments with such artistry and heart. We're in love with our photos. April went above and beyond--she even stepped in to speak with our venue organizer when we were having trouble getting a response. That's just the kind of person she is: thoughtful, proactive, and completely invested in making sure your day is perfect. We truly couldn't have asked for a better photographer or a better person to share our day with. We'll cherish both the memories and the photos forever. Thank you April! Maria & Seth

Candy and team were very responsive and answered all of my questions prior to booking. The maternity session was such a treat and so stress-free! I decided at 34 weeks that I wanted maternity photos and Candy made it happen. There are so many dresses to choose from so I didn't have to worry about shopping for dresses. I just showed up with a small bag and Candy and Nicole took care of the rest. They were so kind and made me feel at ease during my session. It was nice get done up after spending most of my pregnancy during the pandemic in loungewear. The newborn session was also fantastic! It's apparent that Candy has a lot of experience with babies and trusted her with my daughter. Similar to the maternity session, Candy thinks of it all and makes the experience exceptional...from the preparation to the props, wraps, and accessories she provides. I am so happy we were able to capture these moments and love the photos and albums. And finally but not least... the makeup and hair!! Not only is Nicole very sweet, she is very talented! She did my makeup both times and I loved it.... so much that I slept in my makeup after the second session (figured it was worth risking any breakouts!) If you are looking for fantastic photos, a great end-to-end experience, with a professional and kind team, I highly recommend Sugashoc. Sugashoc, Candy and Nicole - Thanks so much!
