Technology Association of Oregon used Jason DeSomer to photograph two events in 2016 - Oregon…read moreTechnology Awards in May and Party in the Pinot in July. We were blown away by his shots. His images capture the spirit of our events and eliminate the contrived photos that are typical of awards ceremonies and outdoor events. He is extremely professional, and non-intrusive while interacting with guests. He captures the moment at our events in so many different ways we can't quite figure out how he got from here to there in that amount of time - but its impressive. And he provides our photos quickly so we can send them out to our community in a timely manner. In 2017 we booked early to lock down those two events, and two more our Kickoff Party in January and Kickball Tournament in August. When planning events you are always looking for great vendors who, in addition to providing stellar service, make your life easier the day of the big event. Jason DeSomer does this, and I can't recommend his services enough.

Jason was everything I was looking for in a photographer, and more!…read more I was searching for a photographer online and Jason's work stood out to me because he has an eye for great camera angles and subject placement, and his photos were very crisp and clear with great lighting and editing (something I found lacking in many others' portfolios). When I emailed him, his quotes were clear and reasonable, and he outlined everything in detail. I was modeling some outfits for a photo shoot in my house. Thankfully, Jason had a lot of great ideas for posing and I already knew the photos would turn out amazing! (I've done shoots with other photographers where I was given no direction and most of the photos came out awkward or meh). I was very happy with the shoot and the photos I received. I would definitely work with Jason again, and recommend him to anyone needing quality photos!

Natalie was the first to respond and she answered my questions in a very timely manner. She also made suggestions based on my requests which was very helpful since I've never done an outdoor photoshoot before. On the day of the photoshoot, Natalie was on time which is always a plus for me because I hate waiting when an appointment is made. I enjoyed our conversation, it made me feel more at ease as it wasn't only about business. She is very creative in choosing the areas to take photos. My photos turned out great and I am very appreciative of the fact that she followed up instead of just sending the photos and being done. That is true customer service! Pricing is very good for the level of service you get, I will definitely be using Natalie in the near future.

I hired Powers Studios, and fell for their marketing…read more I had good engagement photos, but I didn't like the wedding photos. I was sold on the extra photographer because their explanation was one would be aimed at us, and one at guests for the same events (to get a fuller picture). Nope, many of our shots were two photographers from different angles. We did their online form and hired them just a few months before our wedding. Somehow they told us the two we selected as our top photographers were available. I kinda feel like it was not true and just propaganda. I just wanted a few photos that I can print and show around my home. I spent $500 after the wedding to take more photos. Also, part of my anger is that my family is latino, and dark skinned. Nearly all of the photos did not include my family. I gave them a list of 4-5 people that were important to us and to get photos (my dad, my aunt). I have one photo of my aunt where she's the focus (she was my mother figure growing up) and she's looking from the side, and I have I believe 3 of my dad. I'm not sure how this happened, but I do have one of my dad that I just love. I asked for about two dozen to get edited one way or another and they tried to charge me just to do that thing you see online where only one color is highlighted in a photo and the rest is greyscale. I couldn't believe the audacity that to do that to just two photos they would charge me. There's free online software, but when you spend around $1k for photographers, you'd think they could spend a short amount of time. Pros: quick turnaround on engagement photos, good engagement photos, friendly Cons: treated me like they were doing me a favor, second photographer was not noticeably adding a benefit, poor photo quality (I'll attach some of the ones they sent me), did not take photos of two of the people I asked to be highlighted, didn't take many photos of the dark skinned people at my wedding. This is one of the most expensive photographers we sought a quote from, so I expected better. In response to my post, Seppi wishes I had reached out to him sooner. I emailed him multiple times regarding not the quality and costs. No offer for reshoot, refund were offered. His response is dose genius. After posting this a coworker told me her friends had the same experience of disappointment with this studio.

I adore these photos, but as his third birthday approached, my heart was searching for something different. He's not a "sit and smile" kinda boy. He's wild and colorful.. a rainbow that injects creativity into my life. His personality is hard to put into words, but I can SEE it, and I wanted someone to capture *that*. Kelly was the photographer who captured his rainbow blur. Before she arrived, she already had a vision in her head.. a couple of times, I heard her talking through the ideas she had thoughtfully written down. I'm curious as to when those ideas entered her mind.. I dunno! But that's the beauty.. she's clearly inspired by her own lens and life, and she injects that perspective into her fine art photo sessions. She has a plan and a vision, and you just know you're in the hand of an artist. During the session, my son would not sit still. But that's ok, there wasn't any pressure for him to do so. I felt beautiful throughout, even as my body jumped back and forth from strength to defeat as Bruno ran wild.. and despite the intermittent chaos, Kelly took the time to gently guide me into random patches of light that looked simply ethereal in the final edits. Without knowing it, she captured a photo that contained a photo of my late father in the background.. so he was there, and perhaps he was in the light, too? I dunno, but the photos represent more than a happy morning with my son.. they encompass our dance and our blurs and the push-and-pull of our hearts and bodies moving together. They are art. Always an honor to have Kelly and her cameras into our home, and I would recommend her for anyone wanting photos that will live for centuries in albums and prints.. photos that will be traced by the hands of your kids and grandkids.. photos that will help us better understand love and light. Thank you, Kelly!

I paid $2,550 for my wedding photography and genuinely regret choosing this photographer. After…read moreposting an honest negative review, she even threatened legal action--despite having no grounds for it. It made me wonder how many couples before me have been pressured into silence. The online gallery she uses is extremely outdated and unreliable. It took me EIGHT attempts to download my own wedding photos--and I'm a software engineer on gigabit fiber. The issue was not on my end; her server repeatedly failed. Earlier in October, her gallery also included at least one photo that appeared to be warped by AI (two versions of the same image, one with my face oddly altered and facing the wrong direction). She said the final edits would be uploaded later, so I planned to re-download everything once those were ready. But by November, the gallery kept failing and I couldn't reliably access the finalized version at all. I wish I could upload the AI-warped photo here so others could see what I mean, but her contract prevents clients from sharing images in "unauthorized" ways--and based on her legal threats, I'm afraid she'd try to sue. The bigger problem: the USB drive included in my package--the backup in case the gallery failed--never arrived. She mailed it through USPS with no insurance or protection. When it went missing, USPS couldn't help, and the tracking number went nowhere. When I told her plainly that the USB never arrived and the gallery was repeatedly failing, her response was essentially: "Too bad. Pay again." She wanted $68.95 for a replacement and offered no assistance with the gallery issues. Refusing to replace a missing deliverable that represents a tiny fraction of the $2,550 I already paid felt shockingly stingy and unprofessional. She could have replaced it--she simply chose not to. And here's what should concern any bride: If the gallery had completely failed and the USB was lost, we would have had no access to our final edited wedding photos at all, despite paying thousands of dollars. No reputable photographer should ever leave clients in that position. Update: Only after I warned her that I would be leaving a negative review--and then actually posted it--did she finally offer to send a replacement USB. A few days later, USPS unexpectedly located the original package at a different facility, over a month after it had been marked "delivered." I picked it up and told her a replacement was no longer needed. Her reaction? She took that opportunity to double down and blame ME for USPS' mistakes, implying I hadn't done my "due diligence," even though we had visited the post office multiple times and called in, visited the tracking site, and in all attempts was told there was nothing they could do. A professional vendor insures important shipments, ensures deliverability, and advocates for their clients--not points fingers. To make matters worse, I later learned from my wedding venue who recommended her that -- independent of my complaint -- that they already happened to have removed her from their preferred vendor list prior to any outreach from me due to other unrelated, but repeated, issues they had with her independently which they had already given her feedback for, and which she was unable to improve on. Therefore, it appears that the concerns I experienced were not an isolated case. Apparently my wedding was the last wedding she would be photographing at my venue because she was already discontinued by the time I mentioned my problem to them. In my experience, when something goes wrong, she does not take responsibility and instead blames the client. With a once-in-a-lifetime event like a wedding, that is not a risk I would ever take again. Update #2: She later responded to my review claiming that I had already downloaded my photos in October. Sure okay -- I downloaded what was available back then after multiple attempts as well, but those files included the warped AI-looking image, which obviously meant they weren't the finalized edits. Who realistically would settle for that instead of asking that the final versions of the photos of their wedding they paid thousands for be provided? In her response she says, "This matter has been resolved and the client has received everything included in the contract." Sure, technically the gallery photos and USB eventually made it here, but during that whole process, it was pretty awful having to deal with her constant assumptions & blame, dismissiveness, repeated evasions of responsibility, and threats of legal action being taken against me for complaining.
