Pinto Portrait was a lifesaver for me. I had delayed getting a professional headshot taken for my…read moremedical residency application and the deadline was coming up. I googled and emailed about 3 photographers and Toni was the first to respond (within an hour or two). She immediately gave me a time slot that would work. The whole process was incredibly efficient and quick, and did a lot to reduce my stress levels. The actual session itself was perfect. Toni is friendly and relaxed but also professional and efficient. We had 30 minutes (I only needed 2 photos; I did Package A) and I never felt rushed. A lot of people think that you can just take a nice photo with your friend who has a decent camera but the money for a professional is so worth it. You get what you pay for. The lighting, the equipment, the editing is all good but I think having a photographer who knows how to pose you to your best advantage (hair, posture, face angles, everything) and get you to relax is what you're really paying for. Because I was in such a rush she had my proofs to me the same afternoon so I could pick the ones I wanted. Great turn around time. I would highly recommend Toni if you need a business-style headshot. I had a great experience with her and would recommend her to all my friends.

I spent many months trying to find a good photographer to take my baby daughter's first…read moreprofessional photographs, and we absolutely found it in Beautiful You. The owner and photographer, Ellen, really made us comfortable. She took the time to get to know my five month old daughter before taking any pictures, and worked out what I was expecting from the photo shoot. Over the next two hours we shot dozens of pictures in five or six different poses. Ellen was patient when my daughter got hungry, and was excellent at playing with my daughter to make her smile. A week later we got to see the proofs, and they were fantastic. Ellen really managed to capture my daughter's blossoming personality, and was genuinely excited to show me what pictures she had taken. I am now waiting on the prints, which were reasonably priced and of which there are plentiful options. There's no doubt I'll be going back to Ellen many times. It is more like going to see one of your friends to have pictures taken than going to a faceless studio.

The…read moretl;dr for the rest of this is that Studio B made me both enjoy the experience of taking photos AND love the pictures that resulted from the session! Making an appointment was super easy - I filled out their online contact form and received a call the next day, in which I got all my initial questions answered and an offer to help with styling and wardrobe if I wanted it. Makayla was my photographer, and she's such a genuine sweetheart. We started with her asking me questions about myself, what I wanted to convey with my photos, and why I wanted head shots in the first place. There's a beautiful little park in downtown Issaquah we went to for outdoor photos; we also took some in front of the studio and inside. We chatted throughout the session like old friends! I instantly relaxed and felt super comfortable throughout the session, and Makayla gave me great directions to get the best poses and angles. I received the digital gallery to make my selections within a few days and I was blown away by the quality of the photos, even before any retouching! Again, I'm a person who dislikes most photos of me, but I liked every single one of these pictures and had SUCH a hard time making my top pics for ordering. I feel like Makayla really captured my personality and style in the pictures and they are ones I will be so proud to put on my professional social networks and sharing before talks and events! Thanks so much to Studio B!

I have never witnessed worse customer service! Very disturbing!…read more If you're looking at their 5-star review and impressed, don't be. This is how they got that rating. I called their studio yesterday to get a quote. The woman I spoke to quoted me the following: Portfolio Session $1,325. This includes a 90-minute photoshoot, 4 outfits, and 4 photos. 40 photos will be taken for me to choose from, but I can only select 4. Each additional photo is $225. I asked her, "So it's $331.25/photo?" The woman answered, "No, it's $1,325 for studio time, photographer time and 4 photos". I said, "Yes, the photographer will spend 90 minutes taking photos and I will have 40 photos to choose from, but I will only get 4 photos. So that means I'm paying $1,325 for 4 photos, which is $331/photo". The woman answered, "Sure if you want to look at it that way." I asked, "What other way is there to look at if at the end i'm only getting 4 photos and I paid $1,325 to get them.". The woman answered in the most condescending tone, "Is there anything else I can help you with?". After that experience, I went on Google and left a 1-star review describing my experience. There's nothing wrong with charging high prices for higher quality service, but own it and be upfront about it. Prices are what they are, so own it and don't be condescending to customers. About an hour later, I got a call from the owner Brook Clark. She saw the review and started telling me how the most important thing for her business is customer experience. She went on and on for about 5 minutes about how customer experience is of utmost importance to her, even when she opened the studio with a newborn on one shoulder, so she wanted to apologize for what I experienced. I said ok, I appreciate the call, the prices are high, so not the right fit for me. Later the owner, Brook, texted me a referral to another photographer, which I really appreciated, and said "Thank you". An hour later, Brook texted me asking to remove the negative review from Google. I agreed to do that. A few hours later, I was talking to my friend who did his photoshoot at this studio and he said they are expensive, but he liked his photos. So I texted Brook back, saying I'm interested in booking a photoshoot because of his feedback. Then the owner replied back, saying her company won't be able to give me "the experience" I deserve and recommended another studio. In summary: When customers leave a REAL review about their experience with her business, she manipulates them into removing the negative review and pretends she's sincerely sorry for a poor experience. And instead of taking that as an opportunity to train her staff on delivering a better customer experience and ask the consumer, "How can I make it up to you?", she punishes consumers for speaking the truth by refusing to do business with them. I'm a female business owner and would do anything to support other female entrepreneurs, but this woman is a con artist. How many other customers did she manipulate to take down their REAL Google and Yelp reviews? What kind of experience do you expect for the prices they charge? Screenshots of the phone conversation are attached for proof.

We were doing it big -- as in almost like a mini wedding-- and we wanted all the details captured as well as his various silly faces amongst the 100 guests.

On the day of our event, she arrived with her husband in tow as he is also a photographer and would capture other moments that may have been missed. We were so glad she brought him because we got that many more shots, and he was able to coax my son to smile for photos while Lauren was snapping. She made sure that she was able to adhere to our list of must have photos and they were just such a pleasure to work with overall. Her turn around time is great. We received a sneak peak within a day or two, and received our beautiful gallery less than two weeks later. The photos turned out so beautiful and we were just so impressed. I would definitely, unequivocally and absolutely recommend Lauren take capture your special day. I can't wait for our next big event so we can book her again.

Very natural and very 'us'. I hadn't had any professional photos since then though, because #1, I'm terrible at planning and prioritizing things like that (esp without a major reason/event, like a wedding), and 2, it didn't seem like it was really within my budget right now. However, being on her mailing list all this time I saw that she sometimes offers mini sessions and I finally took the plunge over the holidays with my 4 year old. It was great- it was super quick and easy, AND affordable. She's great with kids, keeping them talking and smiling and posing all while taking photos rapid-fire. Since it was a mini session, I was just hoping for a couple of good shots to use for our Christmas cards. Instead we got so many good ones it was really hard to choose which ones to use! I'm so happy to have these photos and am now fully convinced this is something I need to prioritize annually as my son grows up. I will definitely be using Erin again and would recommend her to anyone!
