Asking your better half to marry you demands pictures good enough to frame. Ok, let's be real, a…read moremomentous occasion like a proposal needs snaps good enough to hit triple digit likes on the Gram. Additionally, proposing over Thanksgiving weekend requires planning far in advance to be sure that all of your options for photographers are not out of town. I, stupidly, did not appreciate that fact until it was two days prior to my proposal and I frenetically decided to change photographers. After numerous strike outs, a deep dive on Yelp brought me to Gianna's page. She, fortunately, was one of the few well-reviewed photographers available for a last minute proposal shoot. Booking with her occurred breezily through email and Venmo, and Gianna remained in constant touch in the days leading up to the proposal. On the day of, Gianna was responsive, punctual, and professional. She kept in touch and remained flexible despite some unforeseen snafus in planning. Even after the big moment, Gianna worked patiently with us. She and her assistant wrangled my rowdy group with ease and spent plenty of time to ensure our special day was captured ideally. We received a sneak peek gallery from the session two days later and the pictures turned out incredible. Even better, her prices were totally reasonable. If we decide to do an engagement shoot or anything else requiring high quality pics, Gianna will be the obvious choice.

Gianna was so professional & helpful. She was a lot of fun and came up with poses that fit our…read morefamily. We were visiting from out of town & she was very accommodating by phone & email before scheduling the appointment. I am excited to see the finished product!

I went to Darlene Prem photography for my senior pictures after the studio my school supported…read moreturned out to be horrendous and an all around awful experience. Darlene, however, is an absolutely wonderful woman and her photos of me turned out amazing. She knows exactly how to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, which the other photographers I met with were not able to do. She's very skilled and experienced and it shows in her photography. I highly recommend her and I'll be doing business with this company again.

Most of the reviews I read online are false, as most are written by well-meaning friends who of…read morecourse are going to write, "The XYZ Co. is the best thing that EVER happened to me! So glad I found them!!!!" I don't have to write some bogus review about Darleen Prem Photography, although I have known her personally for most of my life. Here's why you should believe me even though I of course think she's THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHER EVER because she is my friend as well as these reasons: 1) I am a music website & print magazine Editor, so I work with some of the best photographers in the world. I know good work. 2) I was a professional model a long time ago, so I've been "shot" by some of the best photographers in the world and am very picky about my personal pictures. 3) Darleen took some promo pics of me last year of which I received more compliments on than any other photographs ever taken of me. She made this "turning 39 again this year" girl look and feel awesome! 4) I am friend's on Facebook with many famous photographers who have NO motivation whatsoever to go out of their way to "like" or positively comment on Darleen's work (which they do - regularly). 5) I have recommended her to so many friends, businesses, etc. that have all used her and loved her. Her pictures manage to encapsulate an individual's personality in a very unique way - whether human or pet! I think she should charge twice the amount that she does for how extraordinary her work is, but she is a very honest, down to earth person who runs a small business and understands the economy. Do yourself a favor and check out her portfolio then book an appointment. This has been a REAL review of a GREAT photographer. :-)

She is beyond professional, extremely talented, and just overall a wonderful person. Our family and wedding pictures turned out perfect - I can barely even believe it's us! What I liked most about her is that she caught all those 'moments' - those moments you forget or don't even know are happening - so beautifully. She was also able to somehow blend into the crowd so it did not feel like you were having pictures taken of you the entire evening. We have a great combination of posed (not cheesy) photos and candids that we'll cherish forever. I would recommend her and her team to anyone in the world. Thank you so much Leslie!
