    Collage 'o cuteness
    Jessica B.

    We used them for our newborn photo shoot. As you can see in our previous review, we were thrilled with the results. We got an email about their spring mini session. We immediately jumped on it and booked. $250 paid upfrThe morning of, our son had a very high fever and we took him to urgent care. Per Brian + Amanda's policy, sick kids are not allowed. Understandable! No problem, we'll reschedule. We called Brian FROM the urgent care. No answer. Left a message explaining what was going on. No return call. Ever. I've emailed them twice, fully recapping. No return email. Ever. It has been months and they have literally vanished into thin air. For how prompt and thorough their explanations of EVERYTHING were the first time, I'm really shocked by this. I've kept copies of everything and I'm about to file against them in small claims court. Updating to say that we received contact (and subsequently our refund) the same day our review was posted.

    My favorite picture they took!

    The husband and wife team was absolutely amazing. I had them shoot my wedding and they went about and beyond what they needed to do. They were at the venue with me all day and made sure to get every picture I asked them to get. I absolutely love the way my pictures turned out. I moved out of state after we got married and they worked with me on timing for the prints. I haven't picked my picture out for my album yet but I cannot wait to wt it. I would absolutely recommend then fro everyone. I have sent many friends to them for baby pictures and if I lived by them I would use them all the time!

    Just one of the many amazing photos we received from Brian + Amanda.

    We had an amazing experience with Brian + Amanda. A couple weeks back we had a family session for our fall photos. The location that we took the pictures at was absolutely perfect for the overall look we were going for. We felt completely comfortable throughout the entire shoot. Within two weeks we received our online proofs and I was absolutely blown away with the pictures that were taken. The family pictures and candid shots of our daughters were far beyond what I could have ever hoped for and are pictures we will cherish forever. Brian was very patient when my 3 year old daughter had a meltdown because she didn't want to take her sunglasses off for the pictures. The pictures he was able to capture of her are worthy of a magazine. I highly recommend booking Brian + Amanda. Their passion and gift of capturing the perfect picture is evident in the photos I received. They were very easy to work with and their customer service is top notch.

    I was mostly satisfied with there service I do love the pictures I received but I was not excepting to pay as much as I did. When I went on there website I didn't see that you had to purchase your pictures separately from you session fee. I was excepting to pay the session fee and That's it. I should have known it was to good to be true. He has since changed his website to state what he expects. I was just caught a little off guard when I found out what I had to dish out of pocket.

    My twin boys!!!

    Great maternity & newborn photographers!! I couldn't have asked for a better team to photographer by twin boys. They knew exactly what to do to calm my 25 day old twins, so that they can photograph nicely. It was also very nice not to drive to a photo studio, since they will drive to your home. I was also very happy with the outcome of all of our pictures. I'm looking forward to my twins 1 year pictures!!!

    Wake up doc!

    Brian and Amanda came to our home for our new born son photo shoot! Our first concern was what if our son doesn't cooperate! I couldn't imagine how calm they can make our boy :) they did a great job. When it comes to the pictures, well, we loved them :) They are so professional and kindly walk extra steps to help you understand everything. When we wanted to order, I was on the phone with Brian for almost an hour, and he explained what I needed help with throughly. %100 recommended; schedule a session and they know their job from AtoZ. Good thing about them is that they have a kid themselves and they know best how to deal with the situation. Amanda and Brian THANK YOU VERY MUCH :)

    The search for good photographers these days can be a little tricky. It seems like anyone can take pictures, photoshop them and call themselves professional photographers. Brian+Amanda brought more than I could bargain for; for both my maternity and newborn photography sessions! The shoots were fun to do and Brian+Amanda made us feel at ease at all times. It was all about have fun while taking pictures and let them worry about the final product; and let me just say that the final product was amazing! We will definitely keep using Brian Plus Amanda for all of our photography needs.

    Brian and Amanda are a great team. Brian shoots the most amazing photos and Amanda was so great with my baby. She handled my baby so gently and placed him in the cutest poses. The props were great as well. These photos were truly works of art. Thanks again. The prices are a bit on the higher end but then again you get what you pay for. Great quality of service and product.

    One of the great pictures from our daughters first birthday.

    See all

    I feel like I have typed out and then deleted what I have written here about 10X because properly…read moreconveying how incredible this group is at what they do is probably impossible. Working with KHP and her all-star team is not just a professional photography session but an experience that allows you to feel good about yourself and have that self shine in a way that feels completely authentic to you. I've had the pleasure of working with Olympia twice now -- once when I needed professionally styled headshots quite quickly for an upcoming feature/publication and once for a lifestyle shoot. To say that their product is top notch is an understatement -- no detail goes unthought of...from styling, hair and makeup, lighting, vision...and it all comes together with this fun, carefree, beautiful experience, working in their studio (and having fun as well) that makes this team worth every penny. They make it feel effortless. They also manage to compress entire sessions and selection process into short time span (though you wont feel rushed) ...genuinely, the work they do in terms of studio time would take most an entire day. While I'm sometimes guilty of gatekeeping treasured finds in austin, it just wouldnt be fair to not shout out praises for Olympia and Korey Howell Photography. Thank you for letting me share the best me!

    Korey did my headshot update back in 2018 and I was thrilled with the results (see previous…read morereview.) A few months back, I logged into a Zoom call and noticed that my awesome headshots from that session didn't really look like me at all anymore. In this post-Covid lockdown world, as we might be tip-toeing slowly and carefully back to the world of in-person meetings and conferences, using an old headshot felt like a little bit of "bait and switch!" Let's face it, hair is longer, skin is still fabulous, but...I'm OLDER. Still awesome, still sassy, but I needed an update. This time I worked with the fabulous Olympia Roll (and again, why on earth would you make this investment without the professional makeup add-on specifically for the photographer?) who "got me" from the first minute. One thing I especially love is the super light touch on touchups and post-processing. These pictures look like me, not an air-brushed, over-filtered, a little too pose-y overly contrived version of me. Now I need to either write a book or run for office (or both! ha!) because she gave me photos that make me look and feel like a BOSS. Thank you!

Did my google searching for photographers in Houston and contacted about a dozen. Perhaps half responded they weren't available, and half didn't respond. However, one adorable young lady in Austin (3 hours away), Julia Vie of Vivian's Muse, said she was very excited about shooting me! We exchanged several emails about the process and logistics and had an extended phone chat. My trepedation morphed into excitement and anticipation. Let's do this!! The big day! Julia shot perhaps 400 photos in an hour or so, all the while offering instruction, incredible encouragement and showing me what she had captured in her viewfinder. All with a monster camera and first class professional lighting. We shot on the couch, on the stairway, in the window, on the bed. Woah, so exhilerating! Nervousness was gone and my inner goddess had taken over. I'm not one for exaggeration but this was truly one of the best hours of my life. Back the next morning to review and select proofs. Oh no, her computer jammed up, wasn't happening. No problem in the digital age. We had more girly chat, comparing notes on all of the fun we had had the preceding day. A few days later the proofs arrived via email. I was blown away. OH MY! That cannot possibly be me. But...it is! Being a goddess, even for a short while, really gets in your head. And stays there. Who would have thought the idea of having a little fun by trying something different would turn into a life changing event? Thank you so very, very much Julia! And, girls, if you have any lingering doubts about treating yourself to this experience, all I can say is do not delay, call Julia today! Hugs, Michelle

She did a great job easing my nerves, since I'm her Aunt, but we ended up with some stunning pictures to mark my 50 year old milestone. I recommend getting your pictures done in all stages of your life from your 20's on up so you have a professional collection of yourself to reflect upon. Don't put it off another day, book with Julia and see just how beautiful you are!
