I was not sure how to capture what I do in pictures (I am a therapist and life coach) and what she came up with was great and I love all the pictures. I have used them in so many ways to help build my business and highly recommend her for making your brand come to life in pictures. We also get all our family shots with her and the moments she captures are amazing! I will not go anywhere else for my photos!

She is responsive and a true professional.

Julie was a pleasure to work with. Having worked with many photographers over the years, I…read moreespecially appreciated how quickly she understood the creative direction we were aiming for. We hired Julie to photograph our team during our annual company meeting in Denver, and she exceeded expectations. She was professional, punctual, warm, and made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. What impressed me most was her adaptability. We were shooting throughout a busy hotel, and Julie seamlessly adjusted as spaces became occupied or conditions changed, always finding great backgrounds and opportunities for unique shots. The final photos captured our team perfectly. I highly recommend Julie to any company looking for authentic, high-quality corporate photography.

Their shots came out great and they sent us the full gallery just 1 week after our wedding. The services are pretty expensive, but they are very up front with pricing and it is on par with other photography services. We were happy we had 2 photographers instead of 1.

We wanted a photographer local to the area who knew our venue well and could guide us to the best locations for photos--and Sarah was exactly that and more. From the moment we met her for our engagement session, we clicked instantly. Even my husband (who is not big on photos, haha!) said the experience went far better than he expected and that he was genuinely happy we had hired her. Leading up to the wedding, we had a few virtual meetings to make sure everything was organized. Sarah and John exceeded every expectation. She came prepared for absolutely everything--down to packing umbrellas in case of rain--and she even bustled my dress faster than anyone at the reception! Sarah is not only an exceptional photographer but also a truly wonderful human being. My family and wedding party had nothing but amazing things to say about working with her. We could not recommend her enough. Easiest 5+ stars of our lives! We hope to see her this winter on the slopes--and we won't hesitate to reach out again whenever we need more photos. SIMPLY THE BEST!!!

Where to even begin! From the first phone call to our elopement date, Sarah was phenomenal! She was…read moreso easy to work with and really made us feel like life-long friends. Despite having to cancel our big September wedding, she worked with us to make our elopement so special and memorable. Our photos are pure magic! Every single one captured us and our love perfectly. Mostly because she took the time to get to know us and make us feel completely comfortable, even though we're two socially awkward people! Her services are the best money my husband and I have ever spent. If you're looking for the best photographer in Denver, and well, in my opinion, the country, Sarah, is the one!!

I purchased a Groupon for Dream In Blue Photography as research to find the best Denver boudoir…read moreexperiences for my clients. Personally, I have never had a male boudoir photographer and decided to give Mark a try. I recently had surgery and this was my first boudoir shoot after recovery, so this was a special occasion! Booking and completing the online consultation was easy. I had the advantage of already being familiar with boudoir, but for anyone who is hesitant to try for whatever reason, the virtual consult is sure to put your nerves at ease. My first impression of Mark was that he is very professional and respectful. You can tell that his mission is clear and he wants his clients to have full control over what they want out of boudoir. Everything was explained clearly and I was left with zero questions. On the date of the shoot, I was able to find Mark's studio with ease. There is ample parking as it is in a neighborhood, and the unit itself is located in a gated condo community. He came down to greet me. Upon entering the unit, I was greeted by his makeup artist and she got straight to work while Mark went upstairs to give us privacy. Both Mark and the artist made me feel very comfortable and, bonus points -gave me deejay power. The makeup artist was very flexible and didn't ask a slew of questions when I told her that I didn't have any expectations. I don't own a lot of makeup and wearing it is even more rare, so it was a nice change of pace to have someone truly use my face as a canvas. I am super pleased with the results and was able to wear it to dinner that same night! As for the shoot itself, Mark conveyed his instructions well while considering what I wanted from the shoot. At no point did I feel uncomfortable, unsafe, or insecure. He encouraged taking my time and didn't force me to do anything that I didn't want to do or was physically incapable of doing because holy cow -boudoir is a workout. Anyway, it took a little while for photo editing but it was worth the wait! An additional appointment was required for the reveal, and it was very challenging to pick my favorites since Mark did an amazing job. As for payment, Mark was super patient and understanding with me despite a few financual curveballs. Once paid in full, I received my boudoir photos, elegantly displayed in a photo album. The extra goodies (chocolate and a yeti cup) lends a luxurious feel, all packaged in a gift bag. Everything was so well done! I am pleased to report that the entire process from start to finish was effortless, and I highly recommend Dream In Blue Photography!

Taking family pictures can be a fun, memorable experience that captures the heart and spirit of…read moreyour family. It can also be stressful to get your family to cooperate and get great pictures if you don't have the right professional orchestrating your photo shoot. I've used Christina Straw Photography multiple times for many reasons and couldn't be happier. I am particularly impressed with Christina's great style, technical skill, professionalism, ability to control the photo shoot, and the quality of her finished product. I love Christina's style. She gets great formal and candid shots that capture the love and personality of my family. She does a nice job in both color and black and white. Christina's technical skills with regards to color, sharpness, clarity and lighting are impressive. Many of the photos she took for me are great. My kids' skin and hair were brilliant from the golden lighting she captured. Christina is very professional and gets wonderful photos that last a lifetime. The first photo she took for me was for my daughter's birth announcement a few years ago. That picture is timeless - a beautiful black and white of my then two year old son holding his new born sister. Christina said to me, "isn't it wonderful when the stars align for that perfect photograph." I have never forgotten what she said and I am grateful to her for capturing that perfect photo (that brings up such happy memories for me) when those stars aligned. Christina knows how to put my family at ease and gets the great shots I'm looking for. As a mother of a young child she knows how to engage my children. She keeps them focused but relaxed and gets their natural smiles and personalities to shine through. She captures fantastic individual and family photographs, and she gets them before the kids lose interest. As a parent of young children that is invaluable. She is easy to work with and helps bring my creative ideas to light as well. Each photo shoot she has done for me has been unique and personal. One year I worked with Christina for my family photo shoot I wanted to take pictures in the new city in which we had recently moved. I wasn't familiar with the park but learned it was quite busy on the weekend. Even though there were many background distractions at the park Christina was still able to get some great shots. They turned out much better than I expected. I like that she helps you pick out your venue and coordinating family outfits if you need help. The next year I worked with Christina we worked together and chose a great venue. The pictures were amazing! There were so many wonderful shots with beautiful backgrounds and perfect lighting. I had a difficult time choosing only a few for our holiday card. Last year the quality of the photos she did for me were excellent. They were even better than the year before. I was so pleased with them I submitted them into a contest (with permission of course). Christina got so many wonderful compliments on her shots. Family and friends thought they were for a professional advertisement campaign from a magazine. The pictures Christina has taken of my family over the years are priceless. We easily spend money on clothes, shoes, and handbags and tend to cut corners on artistic outlets. But a great family photo shoot is totally worth it. The photos for your family memories, scrapbooks, albums and family tree are worth it. Having Christina take good quality photographs of your family is an investment you will not regret. The only difficulty is getting an appointment because she books up fast especially during the holidays. I highly recommend you call and get on her calendar as soon as you can.

This was an absolutely terrible experience for our family. Christina didn't listen to what I wanted…read moreat all, and when I told her I was uncomfortable in a certain pose (Sitting on a jagged rock on a steep hill, in a dress and heels, while holding my newborn), she threatened to quit and wouldn't continue shooting until I did the pose she wanted. She was terrible at giving directions (just turn, turn the other way, no the other way, move your hand, etc - entirely unclear) and would get mad at us when we didn't guess correctly what she meant. When we didn't pose the way she wanted, she would make sarcastic and snippy comments that made us all SO uncomfortable and made the whole shoot so awkward. And then she'd bark at you to smile! We did not get one single photo that we will ever use. I am so very sad and mad, not only that we wasted $500 but that we can't go back and get photos that we can actually use of my baby at this age again. We can never get that back. I would highly encourage you to think twice before hiring Christina if you have a baby - she absolutely does NOT know how to shoot babies. Or family groups. If you have any thoughts or opinions of your own whatsoever about what you want, she will not listen to you. When I told her what shots I wanted (which we had discussed over the phone and in email prior to the shoot) she yelled at me that she's the professional and basically I needed to shut up and do it her way because I don't know anything. I left the shoot in tears. It was truly awful. And surprise surprise, I've never seen less flattering photos of myself or my family in my entire life. There is literally not one single photo where you can see everyone's face and everyone has their eyes open! I truly believe she started taking bad photos intentionally after I didn't want to do one of her poses because even a non-professional photographer could capture at least one or two that were ok. Think twice before hiring her.
