Amber is Amazing!! I…read morefound Amber through a photography academy in Chicago and right off the bat she blew me away. She has such raw talent and an eye for beautiful shots, yet she isn't "snoody" like many of the other photographers we were looking at. We hired Amber for our Engagement/Save the Date shoot. My fiance isn't huge on pictures and I have always hated doing professional pictures because they seem so stiff and posed but that wasn't the case at all with Amber! The whole shoot we were laughing and having a great time! We spent four hours taking pictures, she caught so many wonderful candid shots that truly reflect my fiance and I, as well as capturing all of the shots I requested. I loved that I could request a pose and she never made me feel embarrassed or like I had to do what she said because she was the professional, it was just a great experience and we will be using her for all of our future photography needs. What was best for me (besides the beautiful pictures!) was how easy she was to work with. I work around 50+ hours a week and did not have the time to sit down and go over every detail, Amber understood what I wanted and was so easy to talk to I felt like she really cared about how much this meant to me and went above and beyond to provide me with pictures that were exactly what I wanted, She even made cute props that went with our theme! I would recommend her to anyone looking to capture something special. Anyone with a camera can take the classic shots but Amber captured us, our love, our humor, and our excitement in this time of our lives. These photos are something I will always treasure.

It is not just a photo, it is something so much more due to the fact that you will never be able to make a "second" first impression. Egis has done magic for me. He is the only person that has been able to create such an eye catching as well as profession head shot. I could not be more satisfied with his professionalism This was the first headshot that I have had done with someone that specializes in headshots and his guidance and direction was superb. I even had my pup with me and Egis was able to take photos of both of us that turned out amazing as well.

Look no further for your headshot photographer! I have never had something be so easy to schedule…read moreand had the results so spot on and so quick. While researching headshot photographers I reached out to Kyle with some specific questions. He responded quickly and I could tell from the tone of his emails that he was a great guy and was going to be easy to work with so it was an easy decision to go with him. It was very easy to schedule an appointment via his website and when the big day came, his studio was very easy to find with ample parking. Kyle's studio is very well designed and he instantly made me feel comfortable. Kyle was able to give me easy to understand instructions during the shoot to make my headshots turn out perfectly. He shared shots with me instantly to make sure what he was capturing was what I was looking for. He has an easy space to change into another look and before I knew it we were wrapped up. He clearly let me know what to expect next and he was true to his work. My initial untouched proofs were sent exactly when he said they would be, I selected my two photos and then right on time, he had the final product returned touched up and ready to go. I can't believe how amazingly simple Kyle made everything and delivered such great looking photos. There's no one else I'd use in Chicago -- thanks, Kyle!

f you want wedding photos that are barely average, want terrible customer service and want to pay…read morean exorbitant fee then this is the photograph for you. However, if you don't then run, don't walk away from her. We hired this woman for my son's wedding, which had to be postponed due to Covid. She was the only vendor who raised her prices (considerably) when we had to rebook for the next year. Everyone else we worked with was understanding and accommodating. She never sent a copy of the photos to the parents of the couple (who paid her very large fee). She sent the photos only to the bride and groom who didn't realize no one else had copies. When we finally saw the photos FOUR MONTHS after the wedding we were stunned at how mediocre they were. Pictures were taken from too far away, many were poorly cropped, many were overexposed. Many of the candids had people with strange and awkward facial expressions, clothing not hanging properly--they were terrible. We were charged another large fee to make changes to the book the bride and groom ordered so we could include more of our family and friends. Trying to work with Naomi on this was very difficult, she was unresponsive to emails and when she finally got back to us to set up a phone call she never called because she forgot there was a time difference between Chicago and California. Really. It is not 11 months past the wedding and we have finally received our album. No thought was put into the book creatively in terms of layout and cropping and there was no follow up from her. For what we paid we expected a lot more in terms of quality and service. Our other child is getting married this summer and we are using a different photographer.

Chris does an amazing job of explaining every step of the process and checking to make sure you're happy with the results you're getting. Even better, he has a way of engaging with you that brings out your authentic self. When I was considering who to work with for my new headshots, I looked at the portfolios of a handful of photographers as recommended by my agents. The thing that sold me on working with Chris was that I saw something special in the EYES of his subjects that was often missing with the others. They popped with life! My agents are thrilled with the pictures from Chris that I presented to them, and I have 4 good, specific looks. I could not be happier!

I would highly recommend Chris Guillen Photography!
