She captured beautiful pictures at each occasion, keeping us comfortable while taking photos during the very intimate moments of our lives. She was very professional and her pictures were of the highest quality and encompassed all the important memories of the occasion. I recommend her for all family, special occasion or just for fun photos! She is experienced, extremely talented and has an incredible knack for providing gorgeous and original pictures. We look forward to our next photo session.

She frequently looks at her camera after clicking away and gets excited about the shot she just captured and it's that love that keeps us coming back. It doesn't hurt that she's totally body positive, or that she's willing to go all over the place to help match your vision! We love Sarah, and I can't wait for her to do our first family session this fall.

I was recommended to book a photoshoot for my family with Avery and Mariana and I'm sure glad I…read moredid. I was nervous at first but their friendly and kind nature put me immediately at ease. They were patient and understanding of my toddlers needs and made sure it was a fun experience for him as well. They have a great eye and are very creative and we're able to scout out beautiful locations for photos of my family. The end result was nothing short of stunning. They truly captured the essence of my family and have given us a beautiful moment in time we can cherish forever. Having two photographers working in tandem truly allows them to catch beautiful natural moments. I would strongly recommend this pair for any photoshoot, but especially any family photoshoot. You'll love them and your kids will love them. They make the experience stress free and fun for the family.

Polachek Photography does a wonderful job at creating wonderful portraits. My SO and I had a photo…read moresession with our Westhighland terrier. Mercy, our little westie, loved both Jason and Alicia. They were patient, cooperative, and had excellent ideas to take her picture, which is saying something because she doesn't sit still at the best of times. They also do weddings and events, and have excellent photo composition (as seen on their website). Additionally, their prices for prints are more than reasonable, and their work is excellent. I'm having them pull together a photo album of our wedding pictures as we speak. After seeing the photos, my parents hired them to do a family portrait this coming August. I'll update my review then, but I'm sure it will still be positive. Jason and Alicia are courteous, easy to work with, and very good at what they do. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer. (Also if you want to see a sample of their work, check out my profile photo--that's a picture of me and my Mercy).

Anita Jeanine was my wedding photographer at Fairmont Banff Springs 12/21/19. All our family and…read moregroup photos turned out blurry and completely unusable- This is a cautionary tale. I booked her in July after shopping around for a few months. We had a relatively expensive destination wedding and I wanted to make sure we picked early as there aren't many photographers willing to go to Banff. She had great reviews so we went ahead and put down a deposit. She was fine about communicating before the wedding and up until the event. Day before due to weather we couldn't shoot outside (it was a blizzard) so we decided to do a longer indoor family/bridal party shoot and then photos around Fairmont of myself and my husband. We made sure she had dinner and a place to sit, and let her go for the night whenever she had enough photos of the dancing. She moved family photographers out of the way to get her shots and we trusted her, since we were paying over $3000 for a day of photos. She said we would have photos as soon as 2 weeks after the wedding as "proofs" when we spoke on the phone before I put down a deposit. That never happened. I don't use social media, but about a month after the wedding I found she posted photos of the wedding without my consent on her pages, before she sent me those photos. Not a big deal, but if she had the photos uploaded and on social media, I would have appreciated her asking permission first and sending me the photos. I waited almost 2 months to get the photos in a downloadable folder. Communication plummeted after the wedding and response times were regularly 1 week+. I asked for the unedited photos as well. The folder of family and group photos was full of completely unusable, blurry images. I'm not talking slightly out of focus, sure, put it in a nice frame and it'll look fine type of blurry- these are so blurry that they are in worse quality than my grandmother's wedding photos from the 50's in a 3rd world village! My best guess is that she only has a fixed prime lens that she used the whole night so she couldn't focus the camera from a distance or add light to photos and the overexposure/lens settings blurred all the images. I emailed her back asking her to remove the edits and send me proofs. To this day, I have not received ANY unedited photos. I also asked for a partial refund, as the entire family portrait session is unusable- per her deliverables in the contract they must be reasonable enough quality to be on a 5x7" print and this is not the case. She offered prints and said that sending me 11x14 4x was a $460 value but putting a blurry picture on fancy paper and a high DPI printer can't solve the underlying problem. I get it, she's a nice lady, she's trying, but she cannot and should not be hired for weddings. I'm heartbroken to have paid a TON of money for this wedding and have no photos from it. Thank god for my uncles and aunts who brought their own DSLRs and iPhones!

Anita photographed our engagement session and wedding this past summer. Anita is someone who always…read moremakes you feel comfortable and special in any situation. When we were taking photos it was like we were hanging out with a friend we have known for years. She always went above and beyond to help us with anything we needed. Her personality is contagious and her photography is stunning. During the engagement session she worked with us to create some beautiful images that captured who we are. Anita took on a documentary style of photography for our wedding. She was always watching and was able to capture some breath taking images that were full of emotion. When we received our wedding photos there were some photos that brought me to tears because the moments were captured so perfectly. She is not only a great photographer, or an extremely kind person, but she is also a storyteller. She will tell your story without missing a beat. Life is all about moments and having someone like Anita there to capture them is a rich experience.

We first hired Svetlana for our engagement photos. You know how we ladies all talk to…read moreourselves...in our heads. that we aren't beautiful enough or too this or that. Well, after seeing the photos Svetlana took, I could not even try those lies on myself. I could not deny that I looked absolutely beautiful, gorgeous, amazing, sexy... I was proud to be the one in the photos and say, that's me! [My husband of course didn't have anything to improve upon - he's so handsome already ;)] Svetlana perfectly and beautifully captured our excitement of getting engaged, the unspoken feelings of love and appreciation my soon to be husband had for each other, thinking about spending our lives taking care of each other. It was all in our photos. So, hiring her (along with her amazing second photographer Monica) to do our wedding was of course the right choice. There's no compromising with the photos of your wedding day - they are FOREVER. And once again, Svetlana, so beautifully, passionately, in her unique way immortalized us as King and Queen of our new life together, presented us to the world in a regal way, even more stunningly, gorgeously, and beautifully as ever. Thank you - THANK YOU Svetlana. You're own beauty reflects what you are able to see in all of us. If I ever have children, to also introduce to the world, we will call you again, that's for sure. Love You! Lisa (and Christian) Beaulieu - We are the ones on the motorcycle!
