I am a real estate broker. Our industry has a reputation that we take ONE good photo in our 30's,…read moreand put it on a business card that we use until we die. Recently I handed one of my cards to a client, and she said, "Wow! You do not look ANYTHING like this photo." It was then that I realized that I had become one of THOSE people. (I was 50, and still using a photo that I took more than a decade ago on my business card.) I was personally referred to Fabio, and was told he was amazing at getting the best out of a photo shoot. He has a strategy that immediately puts you at ease. He asked me to talk a little bit about my job, and told me to pause after every few sentences. It was in those pauses that the magic happened. I was super please with the results, and the hardest part was to pick just ONE photo out of the many that I loved. In the end I chose the best two (one with glasses and one where I am not wearing glasses). I decided to have TWO sets of business cards printed: One very Clark Kent and the other more Superman. If it is time to update that business card, call Fabio!

I had been wanting to do a family photoshoot for a long time because we had very few family photos…read more(except for selfies). We finally picked a summer day at a park and Fabio was our photographer. He was very nice and very patient with our daughter, gave us lots of good suggestions and also accepted ours. When I received our pictures, I could not stop staring at them. They turned out GORGEOUS. I have them printed everywhere now and people comment on them all the time. As a result of Fabio's amazing work, we also recruited him to photograph our Christmas Family party, which was a huge hit: there were several families there and he took the time to capture everyone's best shots. The result was a BEAUTIFUL Christmas album that we will cherish forever. If you need a good photographer to capture a special moment or take beautiful family pictures, I highly recommend this photographer. Thank you Fabio for everything!!

Buyer Beware This is…read morea review of Sock Monkey Photography and how poor their customer service is: CJ (my stepson) goes to a private school in the Galleria area. Sock Monkey Photography ~USUALLY~ does some good work. There are props, there is good lighting, good camera angles, the works. Every time we have had pictures taken by them at school, we would be given a few proofs to look at at then we would choose rather to buy them or not. THIS time we were asked to pay in advance before seeing a picture and we were given a picture of what the set up would look like. CJ did great, but the picture looked, well, unprofessional at best. Especially for a $50 picture (that, again, we don't get to see before). Here are my problems with the picture taken and also posted with this rant. 1. The picture does not look like the picture we were shown for expectations. 2. The backdrop/floor. There are other pictures of Sock Monkey doing the same shoot but with a floor backdrop in place, we received a wonky backdrop with the school's carpet. 3. That beard. 4. Santa's hat is yellowing. 5. Rain boots? 6. There is a single light source coming from the front left leaving awkward shadows on the right side of the image. 7. The backdrop is washed out. So, me being the reasonable person that I am, find a phone number and call to speak with someone about it. I called first last Thursday and then got a call back yesterday (not from the photographer). I was then told he would have to call me back. The photographer called me and was nice for about 15 seconds as I explained who I was, even bringing up that he knew my father (small word). It was a quick 15 seconds of nice-ness as the moment I expressed my disappointment with the photograph taken, I was then berated with a tangent of very aggressive and unprofessional excuses of why the image looked like such. He very obviously took it as a personal attack on his ego that I had the nerve to critique his image. He literally said "WELL, IT'S IN FOCUS! WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT?!" (probably the only positive thing to say about the image other than CJ's smile, to be honest). Now, I'm not an unreasonable guy. but $50 for a single picture that I don't get to see beforehand? And then you get aggressive on the phone? Now, he did offer to take refund $12 for the digital image. To which I told him, I'd rather just tell the world my experience. So, here it is.

Extremely unprofessional and terrible customer service…read more It had absolutely NOTHING to do with payment as they like to claim. The school is actually not EVER doing business with them again due to there unprofessional customer service towards there clients. An ENTIRE school! I tried credit card over the phone, but timing was never good for them to take it. They tried calling me back after 7:30pm when I was putting my children to bed. I even tried to explain this to them. I asked to leave a check at the school, they actually stated they don't accept checks and I still have the text message from her to prove it!!! They also wouldn't even release my pictures when the school offered ANY of the payments they mentioned below.. Literally, can't make this stuff up... Notice how long it even took them to respond.. BC they were just trying to cover up with a lie to make themselves look better.. Merry Christmas grinch!

She knows how to set the right feeling and make things comfortable while capturing your best self. -------------------- I scheduled with Tracy for a quick express session for professional headshots. I needed something quick for graduate school, but also something that I could use on LinkedIn, etc. Tracy reached out via my Yelp project immediately and offered her time for a phone consultation and got me in so quickly. She has been that efficient throughout the whole process, never sacrificing quality. I even got there a little late with traffic and her team had prepared and didn't make me feel flustered. They were so welcoming. Her portfolio stunned me and I LOVED my gallery she sent to me THE SAME DAY AS MY SHOOT. Her studio is adorable and her team is wonderful. They're funny, talented, and did I mention efficient? She is an all around fantastic photographer for any shoot or style. She captured me and the aura of what I needed for graduate school and career beyond. BOOK her. Even if you're a little awkward like me she'll make you look like a professional badass! Thank you so much, Tracy!!

She has such an incredible eye for capturing the mood of a moment--those fleeting, in-between glances and little details that truly tell the story of our family. These weren't just posed pictures; they felt like still frames from a beautiful film. Every photo carries emotion--soft, moody light, candid expressions, and such an authentic feel that I know we'll treasure forever. Not only is the artistry amazing, but the whole experience was effortless. Katie made us feel comfortable right away, even with kids who usually hate standing still for photos. She gave just enough guidance while also letting real moments unfold. I've worked with other photographers before, but nothing has ever come close to this. If you want more than just "pretty pictures"--if you want photographs that feel alive, emotional, and timeless--this is the person you want to hire. Truly a gift.
