I enjoy discovering new and exciting documentation or photo's about my family history. So I…read morecontacted my cousin in Japan ( on my fathers side of the family) and asked if they had any photos of my father as a child. My father is "Kibei" meaning born in USA , then at a young age returning to Japan to be raised. A few months had passed since my conversation with my cousin. I received an package from Japan containing photo copies of my father as a child, and original studio photo's of my father in school uniform. The pictures were taken in 1931 and we're fading fast from being so old. I was quite hesitant in trying to have these pictures restored mainly because of the high cost of restoring photo's. But I knew that if I don't restore them now, they would be gone forever! My decision in picking the right photo studio to do the job was ( the business had to be local and have great reviews on "Yelp". My wife and I had no idea as to the cost of restoring old photos so we brought them in for an estimate. There are times when everyone is on assignments and the business in closed. Fortunately the sign read open as we drove by! (Yah !) Roger was quite helpful in explaining the pricing process and proceeded to scan the photo's. In this way he can see the extent of the damage and determine the price. Even though the pictures were faded, the damage was minimal. Roger restore the photos on the spot. "Great" ! And the price was far less than I expected. Thanks to Roger I have restored photos of my father that will last a lifetime and generations to come ! Thanks for reading!

Great Photographer for Fast-Paced On-the-Move Events…read more SITREP I've enjoyed Melissa at work for a few different events and have appreciated her talent and dedication for putting together great event albums. SETUP At a few Yelp-events that she has worked now, Melissa has taken some great group, portrait and single person captures. She is always happy to grap that shot of the group of friends that you have together and make it a memorable moment to keep. TEQUILA MUSEO At the Yelp event held at Tequila Museo, I first met Melissa and was impressed with how she captured such vivid pictures of the colorful surroundings and the "fun chaos" of the event with so many people, Yelpers and participants. She did a great job of keeping up with the various things going on in the big room. SIENNA Most recently at Yelp's Sienna event in El Dorado, there were a number different lighting environments - both inside and outside - of the elegant Yelpers all decked out in their fine fashion that she was able to capture and make look marvelous with her wonderful eye to detail. THE LOWDOWN Melissa will create a wonderful picture album package for you to remember those special moments.

I met Melissa about a year ago when she was working as one of the photographers at a couple yelp…read moreevents. I found that while working Melissa was very professional, friendly and enthusiastic. She did a great job continuously moving around the room capturing moments whether they were candid or posed. Melissa is always ready, excited and happy to take a picture. After following her on facebook I decided to take Melissa up on an offer for a photo session. Melissa was extremely personable and came prepared. During our shoot she made me feel comfortable and came up with a lot of great ideas. It felt more like we were friends than just photographer and subject. I was a little worried about the lighting at our location but relieved when I saw Melissa had brought her own lighting and box of props! Our communications were mostly made through facebook, email and text. She was prompt in responding and getting me any information I needed. My photos became available to me through an online gallery soon after my session. Then, after I had decided which ones I wanted, final touches were made and the negatives and copies on dvd were sent to me shortly. I was extremely impressed and satisfied with the final products and and highly appreciated her work. Melissa is creative and innovation with her photography. I highly recommend Melissa Uroff Photography for your next photo-shoot. Check out her website and facebook her portfolio and some of her other work. Because of her great professionalism and personality my fiancee and I are even considering hiring her for our wedding. Call her up for a quote or chat and I'm sure you'll get a feel for what I'm talking about.
