We cannot say enough great things about Sara! Since our first phone call we felt like she…read moreunderstood what we wanted for our big day and instantly clicked. She is also so kind and patient which made the wedding planning process so much easier. My husband and I are shy people, and Sara made us feel so comfortable and natural at our engagement session. She knew when to let us be ourselves and when we needed guidance which we really appreciated. We were blown away by our wedding pictures and truly feel like she captured all of the emotions that we felt that day. She is great at capturing timeless photos and candids which are my favorites. Not only is she a gifted photographer, her organizational skills and professionalism were above and beyond! She responds to emails quickly and is always available for any questions. She reached out before our wedding day to confirm which group photos we wanted, and her timeline was perfect! The whole day ran smoothly and we're so happy to have beautiful pictures to remember our day!

My wife and I considered no fewer than 30 photographers before we finally chose who we were going…read moreto work with. The decision was the most time-consuming choice we made - every photographer had a unique style, and prices varied wildly. We were meticulous and judicious in whittling down our list of options, enumerating the pros and cons of each. At the time, I took pride in our rigor but in retrospect I find it laughable. I knew from the moment we added Wolfcrest to our list that Sara and her work was the best. In fact, it stood out so superior to our other considerations that to even think of pursuing her as our wedding photographer felt like a guilty luxury. Imagining our own memories framed through the lens of Sara's composition felt so indulgent that we were reluctant to even consider the possibility initially, and so we continued the 'process'. But when we finished our lengthy exercise, every pro and con enumerated, inevitably it only could have ever been Wolfcrest. Now, our photos read like a story book. Wolfcrest elevated our wedding's niche theme to an otherwordly romantic event. In these photos, my wife resembles a renaissance ideal of beauty. Looking at our photos now feels like the guilty pleasure I knew they would be the first time we saw what Sara can do. Thank you Sara.

Poor communication and Matthew Rose did not fulfill agreement. I never received the 15 photos I…read morechose and no communication from the photographer. We recently had family photos done with Matthew Rose, and he was very communicative and accommodating at first, we took the pictures on a Monday and received the results on Wednesday with "R&R" watermark. I paid the invoice in full on the date of the photos and sent our 15 pictures we selected that week so we can get them back without the watermark. Unfortunately, it has been radio silence since then. I have called Matt, texted, and emailed numerous times. It has been several weeks of me following up trying to get our photos and there has been no communication. I am now trying to figure out how I can get my money back. I would not recommend Roses are Red Photography/Hartwood Photography or Matthew Rose.

After visiting her website, I approached Lacey via Yelp about capturing the moment I proposed to my…read morenow-fiancée a month ago and I could not be happier that I picked her. I chose the site of our first date, the National Gallery of Art Ice Rink and Sculpture Garden. Just two days prior, Lacey was more than understanding when I had to change the time of day due to projected inclement weather (and let's just say I'm thankful that we did). Lacey even scoped out the sculpture garden beforehand to get a good idea of where we should shoot after I proposed. We both LOVED her photos and the session was organized, smooth, and most importantly my fiancée had no idea she was there until after I proposed and pointed over to her. We received the photos just a couple weeks later and were over the moon. Thank you so much, Lacey, for your fantastic work!
