Two years apart, and both sessions were equally beautiful, fun, and everything I could have hoped for. What sets Janice apart isn't just her incredible eye for a photo - it's how genuinely present and thoughtful she is with my whole family. She was extremely patient and gentle with my newborn, and made my two year old feel completely at ease by leaning right into all the toys she kept eagerly showing off. Watching that connection unfold was honestly one of my favorite parts of the session. She even welcomed our two dogs without missing a beat! Having everything done in the comfort of my own home made it that much more special, personal, and stress-free. We absolutely loved having these milestone moments captured in our own space, surrounded by all the things that make our family ours. If you're looking for someone to document this fleeting, irreplaceable season of life with care, artistry, and a whole lot of heart, look no further than Chasing Hiromi. These are photos I will cherish forever. Thank you, Janice :)

I researched photographers on Yelp and, as soon as I saw Janice's work, I knew she was the right person for the job. And she definitely was the best! Janice was super easy to communicate with. On the day of the event, she arrived early, was friendly and cheerful, gave everyone good instructions for each shot, making the whole experience comfortable and fun, even for people like us who are usually awkward in front of the camera. When Janice delivered her work, every photo was sharp, beautiful, natural, and captured our joy and emotions -- truly outstanding. I couldn't be happier with Janice's work, and will enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking for a great photographer!

It began with a virtual consultation with Nadine and Sofia to go over the details of the photoshoot and next steps. Since I am pregnant and also have two boys, I wanted the photoshoot to be special by capturing our growing family. We decided on a maternity and family holiday photoshoot, which included variety of backgrounds and outfits. The next step was scheduling a in-person fitting prior yo the shoot to try on a few dresses. Sofia put together a styling sheet and provided suggestions on what to wear for my family to coordinate nicely. Sofia also provided a timeline on the day of the shoot, which was very helpful. As a busy pregnant working mom, the best thing about this entire experience was getting professional hair and makeup done at the studio! Shoutout to artist Veronica for making me feel and look my best. I have done two sunrise family photoshoots in the past, and I absolutely do not have the energy, time, or desire to get ready on my own. I also had a maternity in-studio photoshoot done last year, I had to go get makeup and hair done in two different places, then drive an hour, which by then my curls were no longer holding. Not at Sachiko Studios, they will take care of you from beginning to end, and you will feel fresh. After getting hair and makeup done, we did a quick maternity photoshoot session. My family met us at the studio and we did the holiday photoshoot. The in-studio photos of our family portraits turned out lovely. For outdoor shoot, we drove to Bradbury's Bridge, which was about 15 min away. I loved the fall and natural backdrops. Having the option of doing an outdoor photoshoot was great because it captured our active kids candidly. Nadine was so great with my kids! She was able to capture my youngest looking happy and all smiles. She rewarded my oldest for being good at following directions.

My photo session included hair and makeup by one of Nadine's stylists, Quendy (highly recommend!!) and wardrobe! That really helped because my closet consists of leggings and sweaters lol. We did 3 outfit changes, Nadine shot some of my products, and action shots with a model. Nadine made the whole experience very comfortable and fun for someone who is *really* shy and prefers to stay behind the camera. I love how my photos came out and excited for another photo session in the future!

What stood out the most was how incredibly gentle and patient they were with our newborn. You can immediately tell they have a lot of experience working with babies. They handled every pose with so much care and made sure our little one was always safe, comfortable, and relaxed. That alone gave us so much peace of mind during the shoot. The studio environment was welcoming and professional, and they guided us through everything so we never felt unsure about what to do. They were also great at capturing natural moments and tiny details that we'll cherish forever. Overall, it was a beautiful experience from start to finish. We're so grateful to have these memories captured during such a special time in our lives. I would absolutely recommend Nestled In Time Photography to any parents looking for newborn photos. They truly made it an unforgettable experience for our family.

She had snacks and drinks available and a well-appointed bathroom too. Lucy has really put a lot of thought into what families need, and it really shows.
