It's not easy working with newborns/toddlers and a husband who hates being photographed, but AnnMarie is super sweet, understanding, and makes the sessions fun! She is truly one of the best photographers we've ever worked with and we will definitely continue working with her for years and years to come!

We first worked with Ann Marie when we moved into our new home and neighborhood several years ago…read moreand were so impressed with her work that we haven't used another photographer since. She has an amazing talent for capturing those special moments, which isn't easy when some of your subjects are 3 years old (in our case). The images she has taken of our family will be cherished memories for years to come. We could not recommend her any more strongly if we tried!

We used Kat to do family/newborn photos when we had our 2nd child. We hadn't done family photos…read morebefore and Kat was so patient and helpful with answering all the questions I had and letting me try on outfits she had in the client wardrobe to see if anything would work for me before the photoshoot. She had some beautiful options but I ended up going with a dress of my own. Kat is truly a child/baby whisperer and was able to soothe my 3 week old to get her to cooperate for pictures and got my shy toddler to smile for photos! We received our pictures within 2 days of our photoshoot and they are nothing short of incredible. We have gotten so many compliments on how beautiful and stunning they look. I would highly recommend using BK Rose Studio for photos and know we will be reaching out again when we need more family photos taken!

Bottom line up front-- BK Rose is Best in Class nation-wide and peerless...keeping up with trends…read moreand best practices etc. is what gets you booked. All stop. That means doing your homework. I'll help you out with gusto, just as so many have helped me as I got started on my own journey. Being on point on your self marketing, especially when you are non-represented, is non-negotiable. Failing to be professional with what casting directors demand is a roadblock. Submissions are "make or break" power moves. THE ODDS ARE AGAINST the apex storybook discovery tales of rarities like JLAW, Michele Pfeiffer, Charlize Theron etc. so if you expect that to be your way in...it's not reality. I get cast and work in these markets: NYC (Netflix movies), Atlanta (Marvel/ABC), and Mid-Atlantic (Apple TV). I am new to the business (three years in) but I have been building a resume over time and there is no way I am going to compromise because I take my career seriously. There is no slack given in a highly competitive industry with a dearth of roles and a surplus of talent. SO...if you want to crack the code, get seen, get call backs, get booked then there is no better photographer for any amount of money than BK Rose and Kat is my Queen. I get work in commercials, major motion pictures, network tv shows because of her. Fact! Every single person I ask that plays a role in getting cast (when I am lucky enough to get employment) has singled out my headshots as what is working for me to get my foot in the door. BK Rose unequivocally is worth the plane ticket, drive time, train time, mule riding time (you name it) to get quality content and ultimately get BOOKED. Not 10 out of 10 -- 100 out of 10!

I mean, I really can't say anything negative in the slightest about Ashley. Not only is she an…read moreincredible and talented photographer, but she is such a kind, outgoing, and personable human being! Truly the best photographer I worked with thus far. She's perfect for event photography which is what I use her for. She is on-time, hard-working, and gets right into it. And the best part of it all, the pictures were ready in under 48 hours. That's IMPRESSIVE. I really liked Ashley and can't wait to work with her again! Loved the beautiful pictures she captured!

I tend to get really anxious in front of a camera, and don't consider myself to be very photogenic and so I was nervous for the photo portion of our days! Turns out, I did not need to be nervous at all! From the very first moment Ashley disarmed us and kept us comfortable. She was nothing but positive and--truly!--made us feel awesome about ourselves and the pictures we were taking. She is just a pleasure to be around and our comfort and happiness really comes through in the photos. And the photos are amazing! Ashley really captured our days in a way that will help us keep those memories for a lifetime!

I ordered a picture package and wanted to get their "ultimate poster" to give my son as a birthday gift. I made sure to order well in advance since part of the order was a gift. I received my son's picture package and there was an insert saying that other items in the order would arrive in a separate order. Several days later, I received a duplicate picture package order. I was very nervous that Color Portraits made a mistake and sent me 2 duplicate picture packages rather than sending me my 1 picture package and 1 ultimate poster. I decided to email them about the problem and received a response with the generic answer that they shipped my on a certain date and that it takes 7-10 days to arrive. I didn't think they understood my concern so I called during their business hours. I talked to the same woman that responded to my email and explained my situation and confirmed with her that I know I ordered the correct items because I have my confirmation email. After putting me on hold, she told me my ultimate poster order has been received and has been sent to their printing lab. After almost 2 weeks of not receiving the other part of my order, my husband calls customer service and spoke to a very rude man. He called me a liar and said they have no record of me contacting customer service (either emailing them or calling them) and said if we still want our poster, they'll print it and ship it when they can. We swiftly told them we wanted a refund immediately. I have never heard of a company that is so rude or uncooperative when they are the ones that are clearly at fault. I will tell my children's schools and any activity group they are involved not to use Color Portraits because of how unprofessional, rude, and dishonest they are.

When looking for a wedding photographer, my husband and I were extremely critical in making our…read moreselection. From the moment we saw Carol's work, we instantly knew we could trust her with capturing our day. Carol has her Masters in Wedding Photography through PPA but also does headshots, family sessions, and more! We loved having a mini engagement session to get to know her better, share our preferred posing styles, and see how beautifully she captured our small moments. Additionally, she met with us before our big day to understand what was most important for her to capture and how our wedding day was scheduled out. When the big day came, Carol went above and beyond to photograph every big and small moment. She adjusted us as needed but also let us organically react in each moment. She turned her edits over quickly and we didn't have one bad photo in the bunch! Carol far exceeded our expectations and I could not recommend her more for any of your photography needs! She has many accolades for a reason and it shows time and time again in her work.

Kroto's photographs are beautiful. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this photographer…read more I'd been a fan of her work for a decade before hiring her to be my wedding photographer. Planning for the wedding, her communication was excellent (quick to respond, available when she said she would be, helpful). The day of the wedding, she did a great job- exactly as contracted. Unfortunately, post wedding, her professionalism was nonexistent. We received one email three months after the wedding and had every email and phone call ignored. Two weeks after the wedding, I wrote her an email inquiring on the possibility of a few early-release photos for thank you cards, but also told her I didn't expect them and just wanted to know if it was a possibility. No reply. Four weeks after the wedding I followed up with my inquiry just to see if we should wait or order our thank yous instead of wait for photos. No response. Two months after the wedding, with still no communication, I called and left her a voicemail asking her to get in touch with us. No response. Almost 3 months after the wedding, early October- still no word and we were actively checking obituaries in case something had happened to her and we weren't aware. At this point, I posted a FB post stating how upsetting it was to be worried - would we even get our photos? Should we be looking into legal back up? We were just at a complete loss. Within a few hours of the post, she sent us an email that apologized for the lack of communication, said she had been sick, and would have the rest of our photos within a week (there were about 120 photos uploaded to our gallery at that time). I thanked her right away via email. We checked our gallery every few days and had no new photos. Around two weeks later, I sent her an email requesting an updated timeline. No response. Finally, almost four months after the wedding, I sent her email asking her why she refused to meet the bare minimum professionalism of at least responding to us. No response, although not a surprise at this point. We finally noticed our photos were available in late November. Most of the photos are gorgeous. A few of them have poor editing (for example, the veil was being held up by someone, so she removed the person but the veil still looked like it was obviously being held up just by an invisible ghost). Still, most of the photos are phenomenal. According to our contract, we were supposed to receive a flash drive with the photos on them. I sent her an email inquiring about how we would receive the flash drive (will she mail it, should I pick it up, etc). Unsurprisingly, she never responded and we still do not have our flash drive. I wish I could say I am still a fan. I wish I could say that the quality of her work was worth the frustration and upset we felt post wedding. Unfortunately, professionalism is just as important as quality of work.

I wanted a lot of specific "city" shots that included the background and they were amazing! It rained on the day of the wedding and her team did an incredible job with efficiency in the rain, keeping me dry, staying positive (and keeping me positive), and being down to continue to take the shots I cared about the most outside - and still making them absolutely beautiful! I have a huge family and 24 groomsman/bridesmaids and they managed to capture great moments with all of them in a quick enough way we could still enjoy our day. We also took really fun night photos in the city that are amazing. Our details photos are AMAZING and they were so creative and incorporating different pieces and arranging them beautifully. Also did a great job capturing the setting so that we can look back on our venue and have those memories forever. Renata was with the groomsman in the morning and the boys LOVED her and had so much fun taking photos, which I think says a lot! I am not super comfortable in front of the camera but Alison did a great job making it fun for me and calming my nerves down, and cuing me to get some great moments.
