Never having hired a professional photographer before…read morewe really weren't sure where to start, but Amanda made the process easy from the very beginning. She was extremely friendly, flexible, and professional, as well as clear and responsive about the process following the shoot. She was kind enough to allow us to come over and select our favorite shots prior to editing (super appreciated, as I tend to be on the particular side) and the final, edited shots were great--natural, while still looking like the best versions of ourselves. Excited to work with her again for future projects--highly recommend!

As one can imagine, these photographs require a great sense of connectedness, communication, and dedication to truly capture the essence of an individual's power within the vulnerability of boudoir. Both Michelle and Erin nailed it. I felt empowered, confident, and completely seen throughout the entire shoot. The final product, and leather bound album, were affirming and beyond beautiful. I will be returning for more!

Picked up my first set of professional branding shots from Heather Mills last month--14 rather than…read morethe 6 I'd planned for. So glad I splurged! Heather brings not only an amazing team, skill, and professionalism to her work--she brings fun! And that fun is EVERYTHING when it comes to looking relaxed, real, and joyful. Here's why I'm grateful I made a bigger investment in her work: Author and productivity expert Michael Hyatt says content designed to include compelling images can average 94% more total views than words alone. 94%! Today I put together the powerpoint for a video which will be the foundation for my new sales strategy. I used 8 of the photos in that presentation. It's great to have more options! This video is the fulcrum where clients will decide if they want to chat with me. The more clients that say YES to the energy in those photos, the more clients I'll have chats with. More folks attracted to the presentation means more overall clients after a live chat. Just ONE client will pay the bill for my chosen photos. My business coach is completely wow'ed by the affect. "These shots are gorgeous! They totally align with your message," she says. "I kept leaning in and asking myself if they might be AI, but I can see that they're *you* through and through." Worth the investment? You betcha. Thanks Heather and team for an outrageously fun photo shoot and images that will warm my heart and fill my bank account for years to come!

I went to Heather for a boudoir shoot and by far exceeded my expectations!!!!!

So I found Kari Renee Photography through an ad on Facebook. She was giving a promotion for $1,000…read morefor just her as my wedding photographer and a 2nd photographer for about another $500. I also paid an additional $200 to have her come a couple hours sooner to take some pictures during my traditional string ceremony we have before the church service. This is a very great deal for two photographers and after reviewing her website: https://www.karireneephotography.com/ the pictures looks great to me so I got her booked. Throughout the month, we have communicated to ensure we are both on the same page and she had me send her a schedule of everything that we need the photographer. The day PRIOR to my wedding, she said she had a family emergency and cannot make it to the wedding, but per contract, she found a replacement. To me, that was fine about finding a replacement and I understand there being a family emergency, but I asked her if the replacement is still able to arrive a couple hours early to take pictures during my string ceremony since I paid her already and she wasn't sure. I asked if the 2nd photographer is able to attend early and she advised she hasn't secured a 2nd photographer but she is working on it! This really got me stressed as the 2nd photographer is not secured and now I may not be able to have a photographer for my string ceremony...I consistently checked my messages throughout the day as I'm preparing for my wedding and finally I get a message to confirm a photographer can attend my string ceremony and a 2nd photographer is secured! She asked me for the wedding day schedule again so I resend it, not a big deal... The day of my wedding, the photographer did show up for the string ceremony, and I asked the replacement photographer if she will be there for the ceremony at the church which she said yes. After the ceremony, I realized NO PHOTOGRAPHER SHOWED UP! I was very upset as I had my mom and grandma involved during the ceremony and I wanted to get some professional pictures of them as my grandma is starting to lose her memory! I was very upset about this as I now have not gotten any professional pictures during my entire ceremony even though I confirmed with the photographer that she would be there about an hour prior before the start of the ceremony! I messaged Karee about this and checked up on it and said there was a miscommunication with the photographers! She said the replacement photographer will "make it up" to me by working from 3-9pm at the reception instead of 3-7pm which I was confused about because I have paid to have both photographers there for the entire reception until 9pm...I was already going through so many stress during my wedding and that I didn't care to argue...I told my other friends about my experience who are photographers and all of them advised that if they made a mistake this big of missing my wedding, that they would reimburse me which I wasn't offered any type of compensation at all. I also found out that it was the 2nd photographer that should have been the one to take my wedding pictures and not the 1st photographer... Fast forward months later, Karee offered me a free photoshoot for anywhere I like and I assumed it was to make up for a photographer missing my wedding ceremony. I gladly accepted and asked if I can actually gift it to my friend who is pregnant to do a maternity and new born photoshoot. Karee advised those shoots require more work so there will be a fee but the offer was $400 which was an amazing deal but my friend would have to drive from Vancouver, WA to Eugene to do the shoot which my friend accepted. My friend booked a hotel, bought the maternity outfit, and had everything planned to go pick up her daughter. Then on the day of the shoot, my friend calls me crying and advised that Kari cancelled a few hours before her shoot! Before the shoot, my friend said Kari asked if she is able to change the photoshoot date as it was her birthday...my friend said she cannot change it as she needed the shoot be on that specific date she wanted (which is why I confirmed prior before giving Kari contact information to my friend if she was available to do it...) Even with the bad experience though, my wedding pictures turned out to be amazing; but it would just be if you would like to take a chance on somebody cancelling on you last minute or nobody showing up.

i have really considered the words i want to use when writing this review. first of all, Kari was…read morereferred to me by a friend who hired her for his wedding. he saw her ad come up and booked her and paid a hefty bill only for her to cancel and contract out photographers, which she didn't fully hire because they missed his church ceremony and were only there before and after party. in an effort to make it up she offered them a free shoot, to which they gifted me and she offered me what i considered a good deal! $400 for newborn / maternity pictures. right away she was extremely pushy with me paying full $400 right away which i didn't feel comfortable with, later i paid $100 then was asked for another $60 to book the studio. after that $160 she sent me a contract with a payment plan she outlined, and it worked for me so i signed it. she sent a venmo request for the first payment 3-5 days early, i paid on the due date. the next she requested it 4 days early i said no, she attempted to offer free items, i said no. she think requested it another day early through venmo again offering more freebies. i paid. at this point i paid $360, with $40 left at the time of the shoot 9/21. she requested the money 2 weeks early i said no. she was hounding me for the payments worst than a debt collector and it made me extremely uncomfortable but i had no choice but to keep with her. on 9/17 she text me saying the studio owner needed to close the studio at 12 pm on 9/21 and would need to reschedule i requested a full refund because now she was in breach of her contract. she could not repay me, but offered $50 and said she can pay me back 9/30 i said no. then suddenly the studio was open and she "paid extra" to book. during this i explained, im driving 2 hours to her, booked a hotel, got a court approved accommodation to have my daughter early that day to make the trip, found care for my dogs etc & i am 33 weeks pregnant. moving forward to 9/21 she cancels day of. this time suddenly is "sick with strep" and offered a partial refund. i said absolutely no i want the full $360, she claimed she would be available for newborn photos (almost 2 months away) and i quickly threatened to leave a negative review along with taking her to civil court if my money was not paid back in full. at this point she "emergency" cancelled on my best friend, attempted to cancel on me, and then did. at this point i was out $200 for my hotel and everything else including outfits for my daughter and i, and now no photographer and she is refusing to pay me back. i am absolutely disgusted in Kari, her business and her behavior. weddings, maternity photos, family photos anything else are sacred moments and people are putting trust into their photographers. i was left in tears after everything i have battled during this pregnancy and this is what this god awful woman did to me. she then states she would do the photos still but since i am pregnant it wouldn't be ideal. she finally agreed to refund me within 1 hour and waited until the last minute stating she was waiting for someone to transfer her the money. during this time i found her reviews and was even more disgusted at myself for not doing more research. i 100% believe this woman is a scam and would not in a million years recommend her to a friend, family member or even my worst enemy. i absolutely believe she hounded another client for money to pay me back. she then offered to reschedule for free, i turned her down, then offered to pay a local photographer for me to get photos but i was so ready to move on and never speak or have contact again i turned down every attempt at "reconciliation". after doing more research you can hardly find ANY social media attached to her and i do believe this is an effort to hide what she is doing. i would give -5 stars if i could. please save yourself and find a reputable photographer.

With all…read moreof the time, effort and money put towards our big day, we wanted to be sure we selected a photographer that we trusted to document the evening for us. We completely lucked out with Jayme and Russ. From the beginning, we were awed by their portfolio. Their photography captures its occupants in their natural state, where the emotions and expressions are both pure and raw - which is what we were looking for. They know how to artfully position themselves to capture the best angles for their work. After reaching out to them, the second perk we discovered is that they are a husband and wife team who can work together and capture the same moments from different angles. Their skills individually are exceptional and we were ecstatic to get have two high-caliber photographers for our day. We primarily communicated via email/phone and had all the details worked out prior to the wedding. Once the big day arrived, Jayme and Russ knew the schedule but were still great just going with the flow. I took about an hour longer getting ready than we expected - oh well :) Throughout the day and evening, they were always there but never intrusive, demanding or in the way. When the photos were ready to view, we were again blown away. They did an outstanding job of capturing our day. I cannot give them enough praise.The way they created our album tells a complete story from front to back. We will reach out to them for any photoshoots we may have in the future. Our photos were also picked up by Eugene Weddings magazine and they did a little story featuring us. This was a fun bonus after all of the preparation that went into planning the day.
