I was a bit uncomfortable being the only person in the photos, but Heather made sure to make me feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process. And the end result came with a great photo! Flash back to a few years ago she did all of the photos for my fathers 60th birthday party, we are a family of 7(not including spouses), so its pretty hard to get a picture that captures everyone well, but somehow Heather managed to do it, and quite well I might add. We have hired Heather multiple times and are always impressed with the quality of her work!!

From the beginning to the day of, they made everything so easy. There was someone who was always available if either me or my couple had questions, for one.

They were great with the guests, and great sticking to a pretty short timeline, with some helpful suggestions. I'd love to work with them again. - Liz Coopersmith Silver Charm Events

I am very type-A so I really appreciated the level of responsiveness and accommodation that Alex provided. She was very prompt with her email, I was able to discuss ideas I had months in advance, outfit options, and even shared my Pinterest board with her so she was very aware of what I was looking for and delivered just that! She also accommodated an outfit change and multiple locations. She spent just over two hours with us and did not rush through the photos at all, even offering suggestions or taking extra time to put us in certain poses or locations that would allow her a good shot. Our photos - digital and film style! - were delivered to us within two weeks and we were really happy with the results. She is clearly a talent and very good at what she does. During the shoot, she was so easy to work with and encouraging - always offering her honest opinion and making us feel happy and relaxed throughout. And if you can believe...she did all of that and delivered this level of service while being nine-months pregnant! I wouldn't hesitate to hire Alex again for any of our family shoots in the future! High quality photography and equal level of service! Thanks again, Alex!

Her images are stunning, and she does a remarkable job at capturing people's most significant moments. Not to mention, she's SUCH a cool person, and talented at understanding what people need and want. She can make anyone feel like a million bucks, and make them look like it too. I could rave for hours about this girl. But just take my word for it. She will take care of you, and you will be thrilled about having her capture what's important to you. I will 100% be having her with her camera at everything I want documented in life...and documented beautifully.

Carissa Woo is THE BEST photographer!! We worked with her for our wedding, which was at Wayfarers…read moreChapel (ceremony) and Michael's Tuscany Room (reception). We were a bit nervous about getting enough photos from the ceremony, since Wayfarers Chapel has a very strict time limit for how long we could take photos and do the ceremony (2 hours). Carissa is on their recommended vendors list, so she knew exactly where and when to take all the photos so that we didn't waste any time and so that the photos would look AMAZING. I was so glad we had her there because otherwise I'm sure we wouldn't have been able to get all the photos we needed to in that time period. Also, we LOVE her photography style, which (to us) seemed happy, airy, + romantic. She brought a second photographer with her (Dipan) and they were both professional, efficient, and fun to work with -- all of which we greatly appreciated especially given our time constraints. She is also very prepared: a few weeks before the wedding, she sent out a detailed questionnaire asking what kind of photos we definitely wanted, any particular special details, how much direction we needed, if we wanted to be romantic/goofy/etc... which really tailors the photography experience to each couple's personalities. My husband and I are not used to posing in front of the camera so we asked for A LOT of direction... and Carissa and Dipan knew exactly how to pose us and make us feel relaxed. We couldn't even recognize ourselves because the photos looked so good!! We are so happy with Carissa and her team. I seriously cannot say enough good things. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer, not just for a wedding but for any occasion!
