The photos capture memories I will carry with me forever. Thank you Jamie.

We have done a couple sessions with Jamie and they are memories that we will cherish forever. We had the absolute pleasure of her capturing our son for his newborn photos and also doing a family session later. She is easy going and has a talent for making everyone feel comfortable (even those pesky husbands). She is truly the baby whisperer. I had no idea what I was doing in general with a newborn, let alone a photoshoot with one and she made the entire process an absolute breeze. Talented, effortless, comforting and leaves you with astonishingly amazing memories- We can't wait to work with Jamie again.

I rarely like photos of myself but loved the finished product! It was incredible that such a brief, easy 30-min session (and one booked last minute besides!) could yield so many amazing shots (that were delivered within days! I did the rush option).

We've had annual family photo sessions with Hilary for the past five years (and even two sessions…read morein one year!), and she has been phenomenal every single time. She's wonderful with our kids--whether it was a newborn, a fussy toddler, or now more cooperative school-aged kids, she's been able to capture beautiful moments through every stage. One year my younger daughter was especially shy and grumpy about photos, but you'd never know it from the gorgeous images Hilary delivered. She's also great with pets and even got our dog to "smile" at the camera for a few shots this year! We included my parents in a session one year, and Hilary handled the larger family group seamlessly. She also has a great eye for locations, whether it's a tried-and-true spot or somewhere new, and she always makes the most of the setting. On top of that, her pricing is very reasonable, especially since you get to keep all the images from your session, and she's always prompt with delivery. Hilary makes family photos stress-free and fun, and the results are consistently stunning--we look forward to working with her every year.

The most amazing, talented, and fun photographer ever…read more My husband and I chose Dana out of about 10 other photographers based on her portfolio. We felt that all other photographers all had the same generic look while Dana's work really moved us. I got teary and emotional looking at other people's wedding photos! Dana was super fast with her response and we went to meet her in person within a couple of weeks of contacting her. She was the only person we interviewed and we knew as soon as we met her that she was the one for us. We had to reschedule half a dozen times due to inclement weather, conflicts with work, and 2 emergency trips out of the country that I had to make. Dana was incredibly understanding and flexible. We did our engagement pictures in Sonoma/Petaluma. We had assumed the session would take half the day and were nervous when Dana said it would take no more than a couple of hours. We were able to do shots at FOUR different locations including traveling in traffic. She captured us perfectly. She was efficient and made the entire process fun despite it being super hot that day (I hate heat!). The pictures turned out beautiful, and she got them back to us in a week so we could have time to print them for the wedding! The wedding day experience was just as amazing. I can't tell you how gorgeous the pictures came out. People that weren't at the wedding all said they were able to experience the day from the pictures. We were blown away by how fast she got the pictures back to us. When we asked for some teaser pictures a couple of weeks after for our coordinator, Dana said they were almost done. When she sent them to us a few days later, it was the entire set! My husband and I have never really been into professional photography sessions, but now we both would love to hire Dana for all future major life events.

Jessie held the whole thing with such steady presence that the uncertainty dissolved quickly.

The final images are honest and alive, not overproduced. They look like me on my best day, which is exactly what this kind of work requires. If you are a founder, practitioner, or creative who needs photographs that actually carry your essence, Jessie is the real thing.
