After thoroughly looking for photographers for over a month, we're glad that we discovered Melissa…read more She was extremely responsive and made herself quickly available to connect via video chat to discuss our options. We were hoping to get photos done before our son's 1st birthday and she was able to provide us with a great date/time option. We really lucked out. On the day of our shoot we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The drive to the studio was beautiful and worth it - we drove from over 30 minutes away. The studio was immaculate and ready to go for our time together. Her prep email was extremely detail oriented and let us know exactly what to expect. Once there we could easily see the setups and there was a perfect place for us to finish getting ready. Even though we brought most of our outfits she also offered an additional one for us to use and it photographed so lovely. Lastly, the cake smash session was literally the icing on the cake. She has a wonderful referral that made the most beautiful cake for us. Our custom banner was EXACTLY what we were looking for in terms of colors and vibe. She got our son to warm up, have fun, and capture his personality. Melissa's patience, professionalism, strong communication via email/text, and warmth was much appreciated as first time parents for our first shoot. We look forward to working with her again in the future!

I highly recommend Kim! She is a fantastic photographer, and a very kind and patient person. My…read morehusband and I have hired Kim to take pictures of our girls multiple times over the past 2 years, including for newborn photo shoots, easter, valentine's day, and fall photos. I often leave convinced it's not even possible to have gotten a picture of my 2 year old where she is not hiding her face or just running around like a typical toddler. My daughters love Kim, and I am always proven wrong with some of the most gorgeous pictures that I am so happy to have of my girls.

Angela B Photography is a newer business, and boy is she awesome. She has extremely competitive…read moreprices...I mean you really can't beat the session price! I am in the process of booking a session with her now, and she is great at following up and getting back to me quickly. I have a unique situation that involves a family shoot with 3 ladies in their 90s, and she's been really great at finding a way to accommodate us and come up with a fun theme for the shoot! I can't wait to get it all locked down! She generally will do session days at a park or another location around the shoreline to make it extremely affordable for all her clients, but does have rates if you need her for longer periods of time as well. And I've heard she is looking to venture out throughout the state for different locations if there is enough interest. Loving the pictures of a recent shoot she did of a guy proposing to his girlfriend...they are just incredible...and what an awesome idea to capture it all in pictures! I will update soon!

I've been so lucky to have Amber take our family pictures. Not only did I receive the best shots…read morefor our Christmas Card but I finally have a beatiful portrait to hang in our home.

I couldn't be more happy with the final product. Amber was patient with us all through the shoot, making the appointment was a breeze. I highly recommend her for your next family photoshoot.

She is gentle, nurturing and just a pro at getting them in poses together and alone. Her studio is awesome- I loved the layout, the cozy couch and all the different photos she had displayed for inspiration and idea suggestions. She even is so thoughtful and has snacks and beverages available just in case we were hungry or thirsty. Of course we were! Lol We look forward to going back to her for family photos and milestone photos of our girls growing up.
