Sheilly V.

Honestly I can't rave about this experience enough! Claudia is overall amazing! Makeup and hair was nicely done. The set up was beautiful and her expertise of posing and taking pictures was just great! Super happy for making myself do this if you are thinking about doing this, just book it! You won't regret it!

If you been thinking about it. Just do it!!! I've followed her for about 2 years on IG and finally build the guts and strength to go for it. The only thing I regret is not doing it sooner. I booked my appointment and she is super very friendly from beginning to end. Had my hair and make up done then the photo session. Omg she is amazing walks you through every step and make you feel super comfortable. After about a week I went to see my photos and wow I couldn't believe it was me. After 2 beautiful girl I needed that confidence boost. I found my self again. And learned to love myself again in this stage of life called motherhood. I look and felt amazing. The fire has always been there and thank you for lighting it up brighter. Claudia your are an amazing photographer thank you so much for this wonderful experience

Error on printed canvas

While Claudia is a talented photographer and made me feel comfortable during the shoot, the overall experience was frustrating due to poor communication, over-editing, and a massive ordering mishap that resulted in my intimate photos being shipped to the wrong address. This experience left me deeply disappointed, and I regret not returning to the first boudoir studio I worked with. Makeup Issues: One of the first red flags was the makeup application. While it's great that hair and makeup are included, the makeup artist did not seem professional. The products looked old, dirty, and possibly expired. The MUA asked if I typically wore makeup, and after I said yes, she seemed to be preparing me for a poor application, explaining that "photography makeup is very dramatic." I reassured her that I was comfortable with full-coverage, glam makeup and had experience with professional makeup applications in the past. However, the final result was far beyond just dramatic--it was cakey and unblended, to the point where I would have preferred doing my own makeup. Studio Facilities: Claudia's studio is located in an office-type building, and I was surprised to find that there was no private restroom. Instead, I had to leave the studio mid-shoot and walk through a shared hallway to use the building's public bathroom. While this wasn't a major issue for me, it's something to be aware of, especially if frequent restroom breaks are necessary. Over-Editing & Retouching: At the photo reveal session, I loved the images overall but couldn't pinpoint what felt "off." After leaving, I realized that Claudia had completely removed my two small birthmarks, which I've had my entire life and actually love. It was disheartening to see them erased as if they were flaws. Additionally, I later noticed that the editing was excessive--Claudia relied heavily on the blur tool, making my skin look unnaturally smooth. This was upsetting because my goal for the shoot was to celebrate myself, but instead, I was left with an overly airbrushed version that didn't feel like me. Unprofessional Ordering Process & Major Shipping Mistake: The worst part of my experience was how Claudia handled the ordering process. After paying my invoice in full, I was told I would receive a link to review my album before printing. Since I had moved since the photoshoot, I immediately asked if I could update my shipping address. I was reassured that once I approved the album, I would be able to confirm the shipping details. Trusting this, I approved my order, which included four products. Over the next few weeks, I received three out of four items, but my 14" canvas prints were missing. I reached out for an update on January 15th--one month after my order--but got no response. I followed up on the 17th and again on the 18th via email. Finally, I was told I must have been texting the wrong number (I wasn't), and Claudia later reached out directly, blaming issues with their texting system. She asked me to confirm my shipping address again and assured me she was investigating the delay. This raised red flags because I had already updated my address once. A week later, on January 23rd, Claudia told me there had been a "miscommunication" with the lab and my items were being reprinted. This concerned me, so I contacted my old landlord, just in case. Sure enough, my canvases had been sent to my old address--the one I had updated long before placing my order. What upset me most wasn't just the mistake itself, but the fact that Claudia was not honest about what had happened. She knew my intimate photos had been shipped to the wrong place but did not disclose this until I discovered it myself. Had I not reached out to my old landlord, I might never have recovered them. When I finally received the canvases, I noticed an editing flaw, making it appear like there was lipstick on my teeth, which was even more noticeable now that the image was enlarged. At this point, I had lost all trust in Claudia and her team and didn't even bother asking her to fix it.

Truth be told....I write this with a bit of a tear in my eye....not to get too melodramatic over a…read moreyelp review....but pictures...when done perfect and if your in a particular sentimental mood....can have that effect. Some backstory...Imagix/Michelle has done our yearly photos for our son from ages 1 to now 5. (See my past reviews). From somehow capturing a perfect moment from our perpetually moving blur of a son (ages 1-3) to patiently instructing four 70/80 year olds on how to hold their aforementioned 4 year old Tasmanian Devil grandson last year, Michelle is a magician/artist...I always leave the photoshoot stressed from the chaos Hurricane Daniel (our son) leaves in his wake....But every year we come back to look at the proofs and are amazed at Michelle ability to capture "lighting in a bottle" . This year was no different. Fortunately we survived the terrible 2's (...3's....4's....) and thanks to time, maturity, and the opposite of gentle parenting, our little Daniel, though far from perfect, is manageable. But we didn't want to make it too easy for Michelle, so we threw in another variable. After a recent canine cancer scare, and recently learning from Google that all dogs, however loyal and cute, unfortunately have an inescapable life, span, I somehow convinced my beautiful but camera shy wife that this is the year we do a family photo with our dog. Some more backstory, if you read this far, our Yorkie, Libby, loves us but HATES the rest of the world. She spent the entire hour photoshoot in perpetual scowl and Volume 11 non stop bark. One week later as she always does, lighting in a bottle perfection. I looked at the proofs with amazement. Our son, we expected....she's done it every year, but how she made a loud perpetual yapping bark into a impossibly cute smile is above my skill set. But I think her greatest feat is how she lessened the "he must be rich" looks gap between my wife and I. My wife is easy, even me with my amateur Android skills, it's hard for her to take a bad picture. Michelle mastery came with how she elevated me to "he must be funny" looks gap level. So why the tear? We loved one of the pics so much we purchased a large framed canvas print to hang on our living room wall. My 85 year old happened to be in town for his grandsons 5th bday so I asked him for an helping hand hanging the picture. I figured he has these family portrait hanging at my childhood home. My brother and I with our full head of hair and my mom shoulder pads captured the 90's to a tee...but what I always remember is the "proud" look my dad had on his face. A look of accomplishment shouting "look at me world and all that I love and created". Watching my aging dad struggle, listing to my aging dog bark in a locked room to protect my dad's ankles, I was suddenly reminded that time, as much as you want to hit pause, always moves forward. It's a good idea to stop and smell the roses, or in this case, look at the snapshot/memories/moments and take it all in. After my dad handed me the leveler and I put away the hammer, and I looked up....and yeah....I had that "Dad" look

She gave us tips on how to take pics with our #1 balloon and explained everything really well, so we felt super comfortable. We also took pics at the photobooth, and I was surprised by how inexpensive it was to take pictures with the professional cameras (only $5 for 2 copies)! Even though there were still people there past closing, Hazel and the manager/owner didn't rush anyone at all and let everyone enjoy their experience, which I really appreciated. Overall, I would definitely come back again! My only complaint is that I wish we could adjust the camera angle because the camera is set pretty low and my double chin was showingggg (not their fault tho obv). However, the camera quality was amazing~ They also surprised me and my boyfriend with matching keycap keychains that I had been eyeing when I first got there!! They personalized it for us~ That was honestly so sweet and such a nice surprise. Thank you Hazel and the manager/owner for making our first Photogram experience so memorable!!!

The photos turned out so good--they honestly look like they were taken by a professional photographer!

They also have different photo booths you can use inside, and you can even turn your favorite photos into adorable keychains. Such a cute keepsake! We had an amazing time and will definitely be coming back on our next visit (:

If you want to re-live your big day over and over again years later, James is your guy! My wife and I had never done a professional photoshoot. Neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera. After interviewing 5 different photographers, we knew from our first conversation that James was the one. He is incredibly friendly, easy going, and knowledgeable. We agreed to do an engagement session, 1 location for 90mins to see if we'd be comfortable working with James. It couldn't have gone better. Initially, we were a bit stiff, but James gave us tips on how to act naturally, suggested poses and hand positions that made us feel and look relaxed. The time flew by and we actually ended up going to a second location with a wardrobe change. Overall, it was about 2 hours. James did not mind at all. In fact, he probably could've gone longer if the sun hadn't set on us! Our photos were edited and received in less than 2 weeks! James was kind enough to print a large poster and sign that shipped to our house in just a few days. He price matched any package/prints from other photographers. Having gone through our engagement session seamlessly, we hired James to shoot our wedding as well. He and an assistant were on site for 10 hours, tending to our every need and keeping us on our timeline. After our planned family/wedding party photos, we hardly even noticed them working as we proceeded with wedding events. After the wedding, we received many compliments on how great James was and several guests asked for his contact information. Within a couple of days, we received a preview of about 20 photos highlighting our big day. We were thrilled! Every important moment was captured so elegantly! The full magazine of photos was available for download in about 1 month. James then worked with us to print a high quality photo book for our coffee table. You can't go wrong with James--his high quality work and work ethic speak for themselves. There is no substitute for how easy and stress free he made us feel, so that we could truly enjoy ourselves knowing that he would capture every single moment candidly. Do not hesitate to hire James, it will be the best decision you will ever make.

The photo studio is located inside AR Galleria (the main galleria entrance was locked on Sunday afternoon so I had to enter through the side door via Cafe Lowell). [Parking]: Easy and free parking in the large plaza. [Reservation]: I was able to call and book a same-day reservation on Sunday. Visitors can also make an online reservation via the studio's website. Upon arrival, I scanned a QR code and signed a waiver before the owner started my 5-minute photo session. [Price]: $27 for 4 physical copies and digital copies to download via email (must be downloaded within 7 days). I did not initially receive an email, but I emailed the owner the next day about the download link and he sent a follow-up email with the link within a few hours (the email was hidden in my spam folder). The email included all the pictures taken during the session. The shop also makes photo keychains ($4+ each). The studio also offers 15-minute and 30-minute self-portrait sessions. [Studio]: While I was here for a passport photo, the studio mainly operates as a self-portrait studio where customers take photos of themselves. This small studio has all the props and camera setup needed to make it happen. [Process]: The owner had me sit on a chair and took 7 pictures. Out of the 7 pictures taken, I was able to choose one for him to print while the rest of pictures can be downloaded via a link in an email. It was more important to receive a digital copy because the US passport renewal process requires applicants to upload a digital photo rather than submit a physical copy. I was able to use one of the digital copies and now that same picture will be on my passport for the next 10 years before the next renewal timeline. [Conclusion]: Overall it was an efficient process and I was able to walk in and out within 15 minutes. However, it would be helpful for the studio to provide additional entry instructions on the website when the main galleria entrance is locked.
